1999 Dodge 2500 Laramie slt. Got the good ol 5.9 24 valve cummins with a 5 speed manual. Runs and drives like a champ even with 264K on her. Has one ton leafs with air bags in the rear.
Engine has a cold air intake, upgraded intake elbow, and mild tuner. Been daily driving it for 5 days now...
Mall model 11 and a Mercury KB6AX twin cylinder.
Mall was restored years ago and turns over nicely. Should make an easy runner.
The Merc will need ALOT of love, but just having a twin cylinder saw is good enough for me.
In great shape has good compression and runs like a champ. Can make a video of it running if needed. Can't cut with it right now due to the state being at full shut down for the fires. But showing that it runs is no problem.
Saw has a carb kit, fuel line, filter, spark plug, 8 tooth rim, max...
Needing enough to make a loop for the 56 inch bar on my 990 homelite. I'm estimating 170 drivers plus. If anyone has around 10 feet along that'd be awesome.
Got me a big one awhile ago. Decided to pull the trigger and restore this one to.
Had super low compression and piston/cylinder wall condition had me worried at first as the scoring on the piston seemed bad enough to make me thing plating was gone on the exhaust side.
SO....a half day at work...
After months of searching one showed up to my door thanks to Lee. Compression is low, piston has some minor scoring but not enough to make me think any chrome is peeled from the cylinder wall. No sparky so hoping it's just a bad condenser as nothing changed when the points were cleaned. Have a...
I recently picked up a WIZ gear drive from a guy up in Washington. Complete minus the starter cover(common to be missing :( ). Anyhow....piston and cylinder looked ok, but it pulled over fairly tight. Figured the main ball bearing was sticky.
Well yesterday evening was demolishing time. Tore it...

Be sure to order in advance as orders take about 2-3 weeks to process but the wait is worth it. Takes restorations to a whole new level. The quality is great especially if you get the fuel resistance decals. Really happy with mine.
Finally showed up today! Model 1-80. Runs to...needs a kit, fuel lines, cleaning and tune up. Outta work real nice with the 36" hard nose bar I have sitting along with a .404 conversion. May throw a 52 roller nose on there if I can snag the bar soon. Has 170 psi and possibly a cart engine....any...
Time for another repaint folks. This is my 4-20 Homelite. 4 horse 20 pounds. Saw had been sitting for over 20 years and with some fuel system work fired and ran like a champ. Even cut some wood with it after getting the roller nose bar and chain broke loose.
Plans are....repaint as being done...
Rebuilt the carb, replaced the fuel line and fuel filter, new spark plug, cleaned it up really good, replaced the starter rope. Has great compression. Runs like a champ. Casing where the inner spike mounts is broken on the top. $400 + shipping.
Alright, time to start a build thread. Tore the 770 down and the bottom end is freed. Unfortunately the top end was toast so I ordered a parts saw. The parts saw which did not run only needed a fuel line and hack job on the spark plug wire to run. haha It runs like a champ! Pictures and a video...
Hey guys! Just opened a youtube channel strictly for my chainsaw projects. Please subscribe and enjoy my adventures as I restore these old saws and hopefully bring them back to life. Got 3 on the bench as of now. Thanks and hope you enjoy! First video up is an intro.
TJ's Chainsaw Restoration...
Scored these two homelite's a few weeks back, the super 77's bottom end is still seized solid so I am putting that saw on the back burner. Luckily this 770 gs's bottom end never seized and it was just the piston corroded to the cylinder. Needless to say both saws are in a million pieces right...
