I wish I had not given away my dads xl 76, it was a pain to run when I was a kid, no chain brake shook the sap outa me, but man, it was cool. Now I miss its wonderful exhuast note, manual oiler, great torque and it always started after 2-3 pull, hard to pull but in a good way. I donated my small homelites, but would like to start collecting them again one day. If you have any more pics, please show us more! I still have a super 1050 buried in storage that just cant part with, one day, soon, I hope, I will have a shed/shop to work in and display my tributes to homelite!

That's cool, I have a 1050 that needs rebuilding, I have a NOS jug, need to source piston and rings. My first non Homelite saw was purchased only about 10 years ago. Before that, I mostly used a Super XL for firewood. I got into tree removals and bought a new top handle saw, didn't want any issues while I was aloft. Good luck with the ressurection of your Homelite collection.

Thanks my friend, good luck with yours. I hit a pretty dry spell for projects right now..
Nothing that is a screaming you suck deal, but spring time means spring cleaning. Somebody should list a deal, somewhere.
