Just another junk chainsaw

wow so it was the metal brush cutting blade?

Yep. I was doing a clearing job a few weeks back, and we had chainsaws out on the ground.
Happened about 4-5PM, at the end of the day, when everything bad happens.

At least you didn't run over it with your tractor. I've never done that, but some have. I always set my saws down in the bed of my truck or next to a big tree.

Someone wanted all my poulan 4000 saws. Great 64cc saws. Chrome bore with thin rings pistons.

How I priced them. The runner user on left was 200 shipped.

The 2 project saws that fired off yesterday a 100 each shipped.

To me that is more then fair being I know what I could get for them parted out.

Pending.

I know somebody who forgot he was carrying his 254 in his bucket and decided to level off a berm. It's a sick feeling when you look down and see that saw between the front tires.

Never done anything like that

Cut up a tree in the driveway after snow, then decided to push some snow into a pile. Was weeks later when I found the saw from the bucket.....
At least I was not moving gravel.

Them 3 64cc Poulan 4000 SOLD and headed west a couple states over to a collector.

He wants to restore the green tank one. His dad had bought one new and still runs it today.

He wants one because what he ran growing up. Trust me it's not a need it's a want thing. I know the saws he owns.

Put it this way. He gave a brand new 500i away in my group on a drawing. I cant recall if we bought tickets or what. But 500 was just out back then.

@haydude look on Amazon for those plastic pieces, a large amount of them are available aftermarket surprisingly cheap.

Back in the day wasn't Poulan a commercial/Pro brand of saws?

I know McCulloch was. 1950's-1970's Mac logging saw etc. They also made superchargers(Paxton). Motors were used in racing Go-Karts. And, they (Robert McCulloch) were tied to the founding of Havasu City and the London Bridge place there.
