How cool is that, and the people that donated them are awesome!
3270 and P40 today! The p40 is up and running and sounds good, the 3270 super started on mix in the carb but the tank needs cleaning. Here are some pics of the saws.

Nice score kz, Do I smell a little you suck in this ? Is that national Forest service I bet it's been a while since they used them huh. How do those 3270s run I always wondered about those
Thanks man, I never ran a 3270 so not sure how they are. I am kind of at a loss as to what to do with it, the saw fired and that makes me want to keep it in one piece but at the same time it is probably worth more as parts?

Throw a cab kit in it clean out the tank a see what it does you might like it...
My 3200 went to live in Indiana.
Think if it as a Homie C-5 with less weight and more balls.

With more chain speed I'll bet.
3270s are excellent saws. Seem to be quite the hotrod for the time. Try it, you'll like it. The primer can be problematic, but I've figured out how to completely rebuild them.

I have only had my 3270SC out a few times. Nice muscle. I hadn't the nerve at the time to seat the H needle. I later found out is permissible on these Tillotson HS carburetors. I have since put an 8-pin rim on the 16" bar it came with. It needs a whole lot more bar/log to realize its potential.
Here is a shot of my first run in the bush with it (16", 7 pin, 0.375" - 0.050"). I was fooling around and it was still pretty rich with the H almost seated.
Beauty saws.

+1, last 3 quotes... keep & get it goin.
They were made since mid 70's and didn't have them back then I'm sure. Did you look under the saw for a tag?
lost quote, rynosawr, pics?
Try this link. I am not sure if it would help with the codes stamped on the ID tag. http://www.arboristsite.com/community/threads/pioneer-p41-whats-with-the-letters-after-p41.37362/
FWIW I have a P41 with no letter on the tag proceeding the 41. Mine has a full wrap without chainbrake. It is likely the original set-up. I don't know too much about the P-series saws yet. I am still needing a couple things for my P41 to get it running properly.
I picked up this saw today...... guy I got it from said it won't run or even try to run....
It looks to be an early version with the green metal air filter cover and it is in nice shape everywhere! the tag on the bottom says P41H
It needs a new starter handle and rope, and a carb rebuild I think. I got it to start on the 4th pull and it ran then it started slowly bogging down and died.... any ideas?
I pulled the muffler and although the piston has a little brown carbon on it, the cylinder is clean and there is no scoring on the piston or cylinder!!
I will post a few pics tomorrow if I get a chance. I was excited to get it started at least!

Sounds like it should be a runner, I have some used parts for P41 and 51's around and three runners. They are a good saw and just keep on giving, the last ones that I picked up two weeks ago were a P40 (same as P41) and a 3270 (older mule of a saw. Good luck with it.
