I'd have to fuel it up and run it. Certainly wouldn't beat it or use it as one of the saws in 'the working rotation'............but I'd have to run it every now and then for GTG's and such. Would swap on another bar for running though...opcorn:

I agree. I just couldnt see not ever using a saw i bought.

Guys, Barney didn't quite tell the whole story. There were SIX of them at one point, and he got the last one. If only I went up there on Friday and stumbled into that booth. :msp_ohmy:

Dang Bob, what are you gonna tell your rep the next time he calls? :msp_w00t:

I couldn't wait; I already called up his voice mail and whined about it. "What kind of a rep are you? You can forget about getting to play my 1947 Gibson archtop."

That is one of the coolest gets I've seen in a long time. I've always had a special liking for the 670's and all it's variants. I have a 670 Super II and I think the "Champ" was the name used later on to celebrate several wins in the world logging championship in the early 90's. Rep on it's way!

The 670 wins was in 1987, 1989 and 1991. :msp_wink:

In theory each saw manufacturer should have several new in box of everything they made, right? Is that standard practice for manufacturing companies?

(this is not to say that they are to be released but...)

Should I start putting away new in box saws for 20 years from now?

Dang, I was looking for a photo of THall.

Still a great find!

Look what followed me home yesterday!

You can't go to a show like that and only bring back one saw can you?:msp_rolleyes:

I remember when mine looked like that. They are a great saw. Run it or store it. Tough decision. Great score.

Congratulations on such a nice find. If it were mine it would stay as new. You can always build your self a good looking saw to use. Rick!
