This is for sale in Australia currently. Will probably sell for around $AU200. I currently have a 1621 in bits due to anti vibe rubbers perished and a couple of other problems. Would have to look international for the bits so not sure if it would be worth the cost. Also, not sure if the usky 61 listed below is interchangeable with my 1621. Any idea how heavy this saw would be?

The listing.....This is originally a 'Husqvarna 66 Hardwood' however in the time that I have owned it I have replaced the cylinder, piston and carb with a 272 aftermarket kit. This means the saw is now a 72cc saw! I also picked up a Husqvarna 61 a year or so ago, this now means you have a complete saw of spares. From bar to fuel tank! These Husqvarna's shared all parts with exception for cylinder and piston. So this can be used or rebuilt into a second saw.

It may suit a collector, it still runs and cuts fast.

$200 AU equals about $150 US... correct?

Seems like a decent price.

I've always heard that saws are expensive in Australia. So, I'm thinking that this is a pretty good deal.
