Check out the numbers engraved in the handle (inside, lower part). That's one of the variables - THD rental turns things over every 3 years. Could be beat to _____. Could look brand new.

Rare Vintage Sears Roper Chainsaw 20" Bar Beast LQQK | eBay
Someone has dropped the "rare bomb" again
"This Auction is for a Super Rare Strong Running Vintage Sears made by Roper Chainsaw. The Beefy Bar Length is 20". I Think it is around 60+cc but do not Quote me on that. This Baby Screams. Saw is Holding Good Compression at 150+. Features a Decompression Release and Chain Sharpener. This is a Heavy Duty Metal Saw built to last unlike the Plastic Junk they make these days."
Me thinks he is overselling the saw just a little..........

Holy Ebay/CL Saw Listing Buzz-Words Batman!!!
Nice. They used "rare", "vintage", "beast", and "LQQk" (why the hell do people feel the need to put "Look" and "Wow!" in an ebay listing???) in their title line. They also describe it as "professional quality", and a "heavy metal saw". He described the bar as "beefy" and states the saw is "built to last unlike the Plastic Junk they make these days" too. All that is missing is "muscle saw"...:msp_rolleyes:

That is a nice saw, I could never afford shipping all the way out here. Pretty certain that it came orig with an 18" bar and that was an "upgrade" by the owner. That is identical to my 917.353770 Roper built Craftsman I just gutted down and reassembled. On the clutch cover, it is missing the "sharpening" attachment that I don't believe ever worked for anyone. They've removed that piece. I just realized I have no poser shots of it now all reassembled and running, will have to take some soon. That saw does seem a little overembellished by the seller, but it is a good saw. Someone should buy it and save me from myself.............
Lombard AP42 looks nice
Notice that he also uses the term 'Beefy'. So I think that the 'rare' part means that it is pink in the middle.

Hell, I have one of those if someone is interested in it for CHEAP
it's in VERY nice shape compared to THAT pile he's selling
I ALSO have a 605, and a 610 if someone wanted those
Aaron, C'mon MAN.... you don't think a 610 would OUTCUT a 029/290??? Your crazy, man!! :jester: :bang:

Okay, I recognize it may be lame to quote myself, but I didn't have an edit option. Honest. Here's a few comparison photos of my 917.353770 in my garage.
Hope this is helpful to someone on the forum.

Does the phrase, "Damning with faint praise" mean anything to you???
Dammit Jay. You "J"'s (Jay and Johnnie) keep twisting my words. First Johnnie thinks I say they'e a bad saw (which I didn't)........then you think I said they wouldn't outcut an 029/290. I didn't say that either. Here's what I SAID, Mr poor reading skills...:jester:
"Just north of" means "slightly (or a bit) better than". I DID therefore say they perform better than (which'd mean outcut....ya jackwagon) the 029/290 saws....................................but not by much.

Looks a little weathered, but that's still a good deal for a CP70. Don't see those much in my area.

Does it really matter? We're wasting a lot of time on some mediocre (but not bad...LOL) saws...
Sorry Jay. Right now I've got absolutely ZILCH for X-10 series spares. No parts saws at all. Actually makes me a bit nervous, as I've got three runners from that series (PM700, 10-10A, SP-81) with zero spares. I've had to go begging for parts already. There are MANY guys here with X-10 series parts saws. Somebody should be able to help you.
I may be willing to trade off my complete, running 10-10A for the right saw. It's too nice to be a parts saw though...
