What is your "crown jewel"

[leeha]

B200, Good lookin saw, Looks to have not seen
much use. The style is similar to a Root but i don't
think it is. Could be Indian. I know i have seen this
brand before but just can't think of it. It looks like
the Power products AH58 95cc motor. In any case
it's a great find.

A few more. The professional saws from roughly 1980 to 2000 personally appeal to me the most.

I agree, I like those years as well. Here are some of mine, tho, mid range not pro.

That would be my Echo CS 900-EVL for sure. She is near mint and I should stop running her, but I enjoy it too much.

I've shown her off lots and people don't seem too impressed by an Echo. That makes her all the better to me.

I'd like to get another in good shape so I can have two.

well, since i like olys--has to be the 4!!! 999's i came across. needed parts for one of the other saws--and this guy said he had two 999's, and would get back to me. talked to him three!!!! months later--he has 4!!!!!! three are complete, and running,, now just have to find time to get the fourth completed--tho they have to run a whole bunch better, had only fired the three,took one to the gtg, and got cleaned--didnt run right, as i didnt know what a gtg was all about--------------------should run much better next year!!!!!!!

Mr. HE

Well then why are you not showing it off to us? I would like to see it!

I got one a little while ago, not even close to mint though so I'll just have fun with it.

I'll have to go get some pictures.

She's dirty right now from stumping yesterday.

Dont have pics of mine yet but It would be the NEW never in wood Dolmar 6800 I am in the process of buying now! Ill have pics in a week or so!

 

[CHEVYTOWN13]

Porting the open transfer ports made it the "triple crown" jewel.

I only have 3, but this newly modified sleeper 6401 is me fave.

Lee, It is a power products 95cc engine.

Nice saw. Looks like a Lancaster.

Ding Ding Ding!!! we have a winner! It is a Lancaster SIX-70. I have only ever seen this model in pictures. This one is the 7hp model which is the strongest of the SIX series. What makes this one even more desireable to me is that it is a re-baged Lancaster !?!?! and sold as a TRU TEST. This is also my first front-carb saw. For now, this one pegs out the "rare" meter in my collection. It came to me "needing a coil" since it has no spark...... Right, needs a coil :monkey:

 

[constantine]

They don't make 'em like that anymore.

These aren't my best, but they are a few of my favorites that I actually have images of. They have only been fired at the factory.

Love that 262XP! I sold mine (1991, mint condition) a few months ago and then regretted it. The 361 (even muffler modded) doesn't come close. If, for any reason whatever, you are ever thinking of selling that beauty, please send me a PM. I'm serious.

 

[rmihalek]

another old one

Seems like the older saws are getting the nod for the Crown Jewel.

Here's a Homelite C7 I rescued from a dumpster:

Putting on the Sugar Creek Supply decals (a great resource for the restorers)

Thanks, Constantine. But the feeling of regret after selling a mint 262XP is one I never want to experience. :bang:

 

[leeha]

Bob, Sweet looking C7.
Nice job on that one.
Where in Ma. are you located.

[ChainsawmanXX]

Thought some of the newer guys should see this thread, It sure is a great one.

This is the first saw I really ported, and love using it on smaller stuff.
Poulan

But these saws are also pretty great!

The 046 is probably the saw iv used the most. Goes great with a 20" bar.

 

[TK]

The 365, but I'd rather take in someone else's showing off than show off myself. I don't impress myself much lol

 

[huskydude]

nothing special but very clean low use saw. just love this little sucker
