McCulloch 10-10S Restoration w/ Pics

Help Support Arborist Forum:
Looking good as always Mitchell. I have a 10-10S on the work bench right now that just needs a good cleaning. I put one of McTodds 16"/.325 bars on it, will be interesting to see how it cuts.
I need an air filter cover that says 10-10S, or the decal though as the cover on this one has been replaced with a 10-10Automatic somewhere along the way.
McCulloch certainly changed colors a few times along the way. I suppose the earlier yellow had too much chrome (zinc chromate) in it to make some health and safety police happy, so the later ones look a bit more dull. Caterpillar did the same thing, but some how John Deere kept their yellow bright.
There is a little bit of NOS McCulloch yellow available in aerosol cans though I don't think I will ever use this one.

Hey guys -
I sent them an email this morning and got an answer already (an OPE dealer that replies on Sunday!?) ....
Hello Ted,
Our McCulloch paint went bad several years ago and we had to dispose of it.
Regards,Robert

Well I finally put gas in the saw today. She fired right up and only needed minor adjustment. I also made a video of me cutting with the saw. This things cuts awesome. Almost makes me not want to sell it, but I need some money for other projects. Here is some more pics and the video.

Mitch - VERY nice job! Cuts great! (But that yellow ignition wired is creeping me out a bit .. lol)
You should have little trouble getting what your asking for it!
P.S. I'm envious of your plyground/testing area ...

Don't be. A tornado created that playground. It did quite a bit of damage to my inlaws' house. It will be years before I get it all cut up.

Hope everyone's OK .... folks around here with damaged homes (from 3 weeks ago) are having difficulties becasue the weather just won't let up to let the contractors in ...

Did I just see this saw on the bay a few minutes ago? It runs strong enough to where I thought someone here would want it. Maybe the fellas here are down on coin at the moment.

How many freshly painted 10-10S's with old-style clutch covers and yellow spark plug wires could there possibly be? It's got to be the same saw.
But yeah, short on coin. I'd love a 10-10S and I even have the correct clutch cover and chain brake to put on it. I'm already up to a 6-saw plan, and moths fly out of my wallet when I open it.

yeah, Michell put his saw up on ebay, more power to him. I hope he gets max dineros out of it. More funds for his next project, which I will anxiously await. We've all seen the 82cc saws get max value from ebay, in the past.

Thanks everyone. I did put it on the bay. I figured that I would run it on there twice and if no one buys it I'll just keep it. I was hoping to sell it quick because I just put in a hefty order to bob for the pro mac 800 restoration.

When restoring your mac's and repainting them, do you get new labels printed, or paint around them?

Isn't there a paint code for that particular model you can have mixed to suit? Sorry if that sounds like a stupid question.
