I think the blue/white looks very nice.
Why do they resemble the IEL model RA so much? Just a Canuk thing?
So I take it that the blue one isn't the one that needed a piston?
I can't keep up any more Lol.

A pair of 122cc Canadiens. Pay no attention to the blue paint job on the 275, it runs just fine.
The other just came in today. I bought it as a 275 but it turned out to be a 380 based on the serial number stamp. Has good compression at least.

Are you saying the color of the blue is "off" on the 275 or it shouldn't be blue????
The parts 275 I had was blue topped.

I think the canadien pm saws is a much better saw .to bad they did not have a longer run . in a sense put me in mind of the avero arrow jet just thinking what could have been. something good .The blue one did get the piston and seals and bearings.
If I understand the history, when IEL sold to OMC and became Pioneer, OMC moved the factory away from Vancouver. Alot of those former-IEL guys went to work for PM (still located in Vancouver). There are a lot of simliarities. Heck, the main bearings and seals are, for the most part, identical.
