Grabbed these from same seller in past 3 weeks - 10-10 Automatic & 1-42 vintage muscle saw.Barely $150 in the pair including shipping ($50 for that,they're not exactly light..),several new & used parts.
10-10 was very clean with great compression,needed a little tinkering & I installed a new fuel line/filter,good used gas cap with a better gasket.Almost got the carb where it should be,wont be long now.Seller included a good 16" .050 gauge bar & new Carlton full comp chain.Guessing it sat for a long time.
The other one is a 1-42 with original 18" rollernose bar & well-worn .404 chain.80cc/4.9 cubic inch,has loads of torque.Couple more filings & its getting tossed.Also very clean with strong compression,it was repainted probably a couple decades ago,there's a little overspray inside the airbox on the carb.Once carb was adjusted properly,it starts 3-4 pulls cold,1 pull warm every time.
That wont hurt nothin',though....
Seller stated "it needs the oiler pump,lower handle brace & a couple other minor parts..." When actually that saw is manual only,all it needed was the pump "button" which I had in box of parts already.Plus that saw wasn't sold with the lower brace at first,though some saws had it later on.Model was produced from March 1961 to April 1962. I also added a new stainless steel bucking spike that was in my stash (Extra for the 125 but was too small even though the 3 bolt spacing is the same.It fits some 30 large older Mac's at least,maybe more.
I figure anytime you can get a decent looking,strong running vintage saw for $75 or less & small amount of time & work....that's a good deal! I see plastic homeowner saws on CL all the time for $75-125 & they wont still be running 30-50 yrs from now I guarantee it.
