Hey, get in line.. Besides I'm Canadian too ha ha wink wink nudge nudge!!!

Takes me back to my early days working the woods with my Dad and Uncles when saws like that were what we were using on a daily basis.

Can`t stay away from places like that, if I ever get back down to lower mainland B.C. again Mike Acres will have daily visitor to his museum for a couple of days, maybe more.LOL

NIB/NOS saws are surely tempting, but I think I will stay my course and only go for those old, beaten up ones so that I can learn the art of restoring these old saws.

Jerry, do you have a 1200A? There is a thread here for one. $50, but shipping is likely a bit more than that by about $5 so the price will at least double.

If you obtain those NIB/NOS saws, I hope that you will post pics.

:cheers:

Mike lives on mainland BC and has a museum of old chainsaws, he lives around or close to Burnaby, I have his address and phone # but I don`t think he would appreciate me publishing it. If I ever get back out to the Island I will look you up. I will be out to B.C. during the month of August, flying in to Prince George and then driving up to Whitehorse, to Dawson, then on to Alaska for a tour about, back to Lillooet and then back to Prince George to fly back home.

Poulan 245A

Here are a few of my Poulan 245A. As some of you know if you follow the threads I have been working on it a lot lately but still having an intermittent running issue! When it wants to run its a real cutting MOFO though. I'll figure it out soon enough. Has a great sound to it to

It's fully unrestored except for the Oregon 20" Bar/Chain, Carb work and coil work! All original paint and decals.

I saw the 306 get posted and was jealous! It's still to soon to tell so im not gonna get my hopes up yet but I just found a Dayton 2z463 in nice shape on Cl and bought it with paypal...It is supposed to be shipped today so we will see what happens. If it arrives I'll defiantly get some pics of that on here.
