Stanley Hydraulic saw value

[firtree]

Hi guys. I just picked up a used Stanley CS05 hydraulic saw as part of a deal
and it seems to be in perfect shape except for the pistol grip. The darned thing
seems to have broken off from the body casting and the owner had no idea
where it was lost. Eevrything else looks great, clean valves, hydraulic fittings
look good, body is excellent, decent bar and chain...

I have no use for this saw and planned on flipping it, but now with the broken
handle does it have any more value than just a parts saw? The trigger valve
and the vertical part of the handle are still there, so I can hold it and actuate
it, but the grip is missing...Maybe as part of a firewood processor? Thoughts on
a price I should set? Anyone want to trade for a decent saw?

You might be surprised to find that Stanley hydraulic stuff is pretty expensive, I fix a lot of that kind of stuff for the railroad and it ain't cheap!
