A K100 Poulan, see picture link. Carb kit and goo cleaning got it running. Tuned it up, ground the bar, replaced buggered up screws and made a muffler cover. It's loud enough to blow trees over but I plan on a new chain anyway and hope to convince the local tractor show to let me set up some demos. I cleaned it up tonight and a picture is in the link, kinda proud of the old thing, lol.
 
That is a valuable saw also. Great job, I tried to buy one on ebay not too long ago. It went over $125.
 
Feels good getting one of those old monsters running, :) They are loud and heavy but so much fun when they run. Well done.
 
That is cool! These old saws just have my heart. Many times I throw the Husky aside and grab one of my old Homelites just to hear that exhaust note.
