Want to Buy Husqvarna 395

[Str8six]

It's been my life long dream to rebuild and own a 90cc plus saw but I'm having no luck finding a complete saw needing a piston and cylinder for less than about $400. If anyone has or can tip me off to a decent deal on one i would be forever grateful. After owning my 550xp I'm stuck on a husky. I love my 044 and wouldn't take anything for it but man those huskys sure run sweet! Thanks!

Tap tap tap. Is this thing on?

You're asking about a low-cost 395 project saw on a forum full of people who are also looking for the same thing...?

Well yeah, dont make much sense to ask for one anywhere else now does it?

My advice would be to check with saw shops as they may have something in the junk pile, Craigslist, local loggers, or forestry/logging companies. I got 7 blown up 394s/395s one time from a forestry contractor who had switched over to Stihl. He sold me the whole lot for $150. A lot of it was junk but there was enough stuff to build three good saws after buying $300 in small parts, gasket sets, seals, pistons/rings, etc.

Thanks! I just made a deal on one from Craig's list. I will post details later. Thanks for the advice. This one's a runner too!
