Because he's part paisano

Adam handed over a 7900 he used to use for his tree service business.

And his winning modified 7900 cylinder that took a first place to play with

As of right now, my best score was the Craftsman 3.7, my uncle gave it to me and I got it running. I have asked my dad to talk to people he works with and see if any of them have old saws, lawn mowers, etc. that they don't want anymore. I will post all finds on here for you (and me) CAD infected persons.

One I got at a yard sale. it was so black and covered with grease grime, that I was embarrassed to pay 5 bucks for. Course I had no idea what it was at the time. Cleaned up, carb kit, impulse and fuel line, and 6 years later it still running. 026 pro..yep...I'm bragging.

person on CL, posted a stihl 025 and a craftsman. When I met up with him he said I just missed out on the 025 for $125, but he had this mint craftsman for $50. He stated it always ran great...no kidding. It was the Solo 651, version, mag case, like new. He had no idea, he was probably wondering why I was so happy buying a crapsman :hmm3grin2orange:

For real, sat on the shelf in the pawn for 8 months.

Have to add a 288 for $80, guy said it was trash, had a very plugged muffler, needed a av and chainbrake.

My favorite saw 394 XP it ran, but it did need a coil and few other wear parts. It cost $25, I have about $200 in now.

 

[copedirector]

To date a Stihl 044 w/ 20" bar for $75, Stihl 024 $100(absolutly beautiful), a free Mac 110, and a free Stihl 041AV with another promised to be free 041 to follow soon. Seems all my saws fall in the $125-$250 catagory other than these.

Awesome deal.
Just got a 288 for cheap- I was told it was a broke rod, turned out to be the piston. I would have rather replaced the rod though cause I have a spare. haha.

Went to an auction and bid on one of two 18" craftsmans 40cc, got it for $17.50 and the auctioneer asked if I wanted the other one as well and ended up getting both for $35 and a third one, a poulan match to the craftsmans, for $20. Total $55 for 3 saws. Brought them home , cleaned out the old fuel, cleaned out the carbs, new plugs, new fuel, adjusted the carbs. They all ran and idled and cut. Two came with cases. Sold them all for $60 each in a week. Got to love country auctions.:hmm3grin2orange::chainsawguy:

I got this today for $40. Needs a piston so far, but I haven't vac tested it yet.
It's pretty clean, I was quite happy with it. I even got a stihl case for it.

The guy delivered it too, I didn't even have to go get it.

These pics aren't the best, but you get the idea.
