Sure was fun wasn't it Jim. I only wish that I didn't have to leave early. Looking forward to next year already. Maybe we can get Stumpy to come up and visit us in Iowa. JR
I remember them rolls, very fondly, as a matter of fact. Thank you again.

Good to see things are coming around bro. I just fixed up with you for some bars that Anthony donated. Keep your chin up.
My chin's up, shoulders back, chest out, and proceeding forward.
I'd love to make it to more GTG's. food in general is a good lure fer me.
Hey stumpy, if I fix up the old Poulan 3000 series... and send that your way when you can accommodate it, would you want it?
I reckon a guy like you might actually like the saw... especially ported and muff modded...
I might drop the base gasket as well...
What do you think?

If he doesn't have room for it there is always a place in Kentucky...............

Thanks man nice pics.
Gave it a good cleaning. Will do a bit more yet before it goes out. Cleaned all the crap out from under the flywheel cover, clutch cover, in the carb box, around the fins and coil, etc. Blew out the AF. Cleaned out the recoil mechanism, repaired the starter spring by heating and rebending the end. Burned my finger in the process (d'oh!) Installed a new rope. Works much better now that it rewinds as it should.................and no longer has an 18" rope.
Compression is VERY good. Don't have a gauge ATM. Now it's waiting on a new loop of chain from 8433Jeff, and some small bits from Duke Thieroff (gas cap, rear handle insert, etc). I'll put a carb kit in it sometime in the next few days. It starts and runs now, but fresh diaphragms won't hurt. Bar is a 16" McCulloch branded hardnose .058G bar that's in good shape. Most of the paint and logos remain. The # on it coresponds to the OEM bar listed in the IPL.
Color doesn't look the same as what's in the pic. Turned more 'yellow' in the pic for some reason. Only broken bit is a small bit missing from the lower right corner edge of the clutch cover (second pic). Won't hurt anything. There's a few light corrosion spots and some paint knocked/rubbed off............but overall it's a good solid low-time saw that will be a good fun runner for somebody. It has a good rim drive drum too. I'll post a pic or two when the chain is on and I've finished cleaning.
The saw is a Model 600002U 10-10A with an 11 serial # prefix. That puts it between 1970 and 1972. Here's a link for the IPL.
