Those aluminum deck lawnboys are unbeatable. I sold many of them in college when I managed a Ace hardware store

You ought to try a magnesium deck lawn boy...I got one cheap and use it a lot, I think the deck is on it's third engine by now. You can tell the difference in the weight easily!

I remember as a kid--people next door had a lawn boy-ran like a top!!--Years pass-- The lady is by herself--Teenager down the street offers to mow her grass for$$--Use her mower --straight gas--I remember it locking up--I learned a lot that day..

Is it the two stroke engine or four stroke ? The two stroke engines were the best

Here y'all go.. I'm to lazy to research this saw.. Found as lawn art as I was drinking beer and telling lies at the bosses house. It's old. And all there.

You think it's worth doing anything with it? Like getting it going and fresh coat of paint. Maybe a teardown first? None of my saws are that old, but close. 1957 is my oldest Mac

Some people like them, some don't, they are a very unique saw but I have seen where they can be difficult to get running

At first glance I thought not worth it because I have a David Bradley that the shell has been eaten away. But a closer look and feel said to me the casing is Smooth as glass..no bolts are missing. I might just take a chance.. Sometimes it works out, and other times it's a shelf Queen. I can at the very least get it in out of the weather. Thanks for the input. I really do appreciate it. Cheers.

Might as well get the 2 pick heads as well--dig around that tree for more artifacts--David

One of those old "Lunch Box" Macs. They are definitely "Unique"!

David, lost me on the pick heads. Think & thunk I heard it all, but apparently not. I'll say ouch later. All in fun. Cheers. K

I bought a modern saw and it got damaged during shipment due to poor packaging. It was very disappointing to see.

Did they insure it?

 

[s sidewall]

Wow, dropped off the back of the truck a few times from the look of it.

I think just the $50 that comes with priority mail. I’m waiting on the seller to respond to my message.
