Mac 1-72 / David Bradley

[sawbid]

Just got these two saws...My dad had to pick 'em up for me. I can't wait to actually touch them in about 6 weeks!!! The 1-72 came with the original owners manual! Anyone know the model of the Bradley? The mac runs real well, and the Bradley just needs some carb adjustments...supposedly!

The david bradley has the Power Products/Tecumseh AH58 motor. 95CC. The red plate on the side of it should have the model number. ACRES LINK

Wiggs, how can you tell?

Wiggs, how can you tell?

The starter/flywheel cover is unique to the AH58.

Oh, gotcha, guess I should pay attention in the Power Products thread.

Now a trip upstairs to find mine is in order.

That Mac definitely looks cool too

My dad is gonna take better pics for me...will post as soon as I get them. These pics are from the sellers phone camera. Will have him get a detailed pic of the info plate on the Bradley.

I dont think they should be just shelf queens.

I may be mistaken, but I think the 1-72 is close to design and cc wise of the S44A I have, and its a great runner, and really drags the chips out

Original thought was to put them on the site, but I can't get over how cool they look. I'll make a determindation after I give them a little test ride...

For the right price, I know a place it could stay

But I really think you will be set on keeping them

Ok, heres the story on the Mac 1-72: In its day it was the Spokane Valley (WA state) Fire Departments entry saw...even came with a 1-71 owners manual and IPL...pretty cool. Ever since then, the SVFD mechanic has had both of them. Don't have a story about the David Bradly, it is a cool lookin beast though.
