I don't claim to know much about those Poulans, but that doesn't look like a Super XL to me?

Yep. Looks like a CP125 (stated block number matches) that's missing the starter and original clutch cover. Somebody put a RH start clutch cover (and MAYBE the RH start clutch assembly) onto the saw. If the original LH starter was reinstalled, then it'd be a "dual start" McCulloch.........as has been made (for kicks) by a few guys already. Somebody's already bid it to $280 and that "bargain" $300 BIN is gone. That's STUPID money for a questionable saw that rough. CP125's are desireable saws, and rarer than an SP125...........but COME ON PEOPLE.......................it ain't a Solo Twin...
The Poulan 361-451 saws (and several Remingtons, Lombards, Pioneers, and others I can't remember) are quite similar to the XL12/SXL Homelites. Most were brought out within a couple of years of the late-1963 release of the XL-12. We've had some "spirited debates" about whether or not any "copying", "parallel development" "shared ideas", etc went on (and to what extent). The "conclusion" has been that it'd be great fun to gather up all of the various bigwigs from those companies (most would have to be brought back from the hereafter) for a question and answer session regarding this topic...

They played a lot of golf together.
In the wire rope industry we were always looking at our competators product.

I do hope that who ever bought this saw knows the picture in the auction could not be the saw they are receiving. Auction was for a used 288xp and the pictured saw looks to be a brand new 372xp.

Well for one its 65cc. Like Aaron says, lots of saws share a design that looks like these. Poulan actually was right at the front in getting auto oilers on them. Thats a feature I say has to be there to call them a "modern" design.
Must have been a money making design for all of them as they were made for a long time.
Who the heck would put an 18" bar on a 3120?!?
Why did you think it was odd looking?
I was not saying I thought there was something wrong with the saw but the dang saw is as long as the bar.

Yep. Both were robust, long standing designs. I wish the Homelite "upsized" versions of the XL-12/SXL platform (XL400 and XL500) had been as successful as the 400/401/451/etc "upsized' versions of the Poulan 361 platform. Homelite had an XL-Automatic (XL-12 with auto oiler) in 1965 BTW. My 1965 dated IPL lists both oiler types. Again, they all came out around the same time. Must've all been hunting/fishing/drinking buddies. The Homelite and Poulan saws of this type with auto-oilers had "real" mechanical oil pumps, rather than just the pressurized oil tank systems of the Remingtons. I don't know much about the Lombard or Pioneer auto-oiler systems (regarding type, or when they were introduced).
