I think that saw started production in the very early 70's. Unless you are a collector, I'd find a much newer saw for that kind of money - overpriced IMO if you are looking for a saw to use (collecting stuff and bets are off). Cheers!

i boughted it new and took care of it it has very very little use

Take a look at the owner. If he's much less than 60 years old, he did NOT buy that new. It's a 40 year old saw.

I saw that one. It's been posted a few times. That 'like new' comment gets me every time!
