Andrethegiant70 was kind enough to send me a Homelite Zip. These old saws are trying to take over my collection! This one appears to be complete except for some of the recoil parts. I have the cover but not the pulley or other parts. It has no muffer, just a screen and diverter. I removed it and the piston, rings, and cylinder look great. LOTS of carbon though. You would not want to fire this thing up with poping the jug and decarboning the P&C. I can see pieces laying on the cylinder wall. Just another reason I don't like to fire up an old saw upon delivery. It's generally quite clean. However, under the covers and in out of the way crevices, it's quite grimey. It will require a complete disassembly. Not sure if it'll get paint and decals or not. I like them to look nice but then I'll never want to put it in wood again. I'll have the bar and chain in a couple days, different box. Anyway, here she is.

. I sent Bryce an email this morning. I've been having trouble getting ahold of him lately though.
