Another 83cc poulan coming together. :licking: Instead of the normal golden yellow on these, I wanted a green one. :p

I'm not into painting chainsaws. But they never made a green version of this saw and I wanted one. Only made in partner and poulan yellow or jonsered red.

Shes not perfect and neither is her owner. But 83cc of poulan is up and running, built from parts I had from parts saws. Used a stihl 066 piston and a partner 5000 coil to replace the ridiculously low rev-limited coil in these.

For now I am using a modfied husky 268 272 clutch cover and a recoil with missing fins till I come across better ones to paint up. The recoil decal was made by my wife to match the green.

My cheap camera dont show the lime green right.

John Deere green paint commands great resale dollars in tractors, why not in chainsaws?

Junk just keeps finding its way. 440 finished rebuild other day and then a 046 in parts gets dropped off. :licking:

All 3 of these 70.7cc saws were rebuilt by me. 445 372 440

I repaired that recoil over with my redneck idea and then painted them purple and stuck some wild thing stickers on both sides. clutch and recoil.
I also took a better set and painted green and made some green 505 decals for those too.
