so sexy!!!
despite the original colors being kinda blah and boring they just look right on the 650

the paint was faded to white on one side. I prefer original if there's much left. that & a ra are the only ones I ever repainted. top cover in pic is b4.

I hope it's a good one.

I had a P-51 just long enuff to straighten out the botched carb rebuild, clean him up and throw him on C'list. He was gone in a week.[emoji15]

The NOS 28" bar helped.

This p50 had a broken fuel line in the tank. Just a little crack. It was sucking air and no fuel. carb was clean as can be. Sounded goo piss revving in the garage.

Friend of mine gave me this last night.
Pioneer 620. I heard pioneer made a 620 super. I don't know if it's a super or not. I really don't know much at all about this saw. Anyone know how to tell if it's a super or not? Any other info you guys could share would be nice too.

I remember reading something that said the only difference between the 620 and the 620super was the carb. I could be wrong.

The full wrap in the background, box of parts and the partially covered saw is my hybrid I'm building. I made the full wrap from the 044 half wrap and added a piece from an old 038 half wrap I had.

Thanks for all the info. I think it will be a fun resto project. I haven't looked real close at it yet but it seems to be all there and in real nice shape. It feels like the compression is good. Hopefully all it needs to run is a carb kit and a few other rubber parts. I haven't checked for spark yet. If you guys think of any other info I'd love to hear it. Thanks
