Great job Mark. That saw looks mean! I really like the looks of it. Any idea what year it is?
I'm going to guess around 90...

They are some runners for sure Mark. I am actually trying to get my 505 back from my dad. I just don't think he's ready to let me have it back yet LOL. When he does the muffler is getting opened up for sure.

Nice saw looks like new! I like mine, I think they were a very underated saw, both the jonsered and poulan pro. here is pic of mine

WHERE'S THE BAR!!! Just kiddin. I know that 475 laughs at that bar though!
It only has 20" on it now, but I have run a 32" with no problem. It is a beast to pull start at 32 degrees or below, or sometimes even above.
Del, that one of yours is a nice one. I kinda like the look of the big dogs!
I just picked up a new comp tester this morning and I just checked the comp on the 475 right now and it is a rock solid 165
Not bad for only 3-4 minutes run time.
I said before when you go to start this thing you got to pull it like you mean it!!!!!

I finally got the clutch parts for my 425PP yesterday after waiting a month for parts. The clutch itself was on back order. Put it all together today and put a 20" bar on it. I was very happy with the performance of this saw. I bet your 475 is a sweet saw.

I also think it is an early one - the serial number should tell you the year and week.....

The big dogs were on the saw when I got it, I checked and they are a poulan pro option, it also came with a full wrap handle, I changed it to the standard one. This saw was purchased by a guy who used it to cut wood for their cabin fireplace when they went there 2 or 3 times a summer, slight over kill, buy buyer and dealer. Mine has a seral no. 0250076

Nice looking saw! Makes me want a 655 poulan!
Mark, that is a nice one. I'm been looking forward to you finishing it. You don't see many of those saws pop up. Either they were a low seller, or owners are hanging onto them.

Kevin this damn working for a living sucks. Eats up too much of my saw time.
I probably won't get to run it till this weekend. I'll see if Mike will video it. I really think this thing is going to be a beast.
Well I'm starting to try to round up the parts needed to put the other back together.
Might be a good weekend project for you to come over for.
