Finally finished this project. Originally paid 50$ for it, she was dropped out of a tree. Thanks to a couple of awesome people on ebay, I was able to get it finished. I had to replace, chain brake handle, the rear handle/engine shroud, the recoil, clutch cover, oil filler cap, bar adjustment screw, chain slides, bar nuts, a new 18" bar and chain, and a good cleaning.

 Cut this up yesterday with the ms290 I built. I absolutely love this saw. I originally built it for my grandfather to use as my 051av was a bit to heavy for him, but I may just keep it 8).
