Pretty cool B.
I hate it when they clear coat the plastics.

6 Hp stock, 4 in big bore form!!! Never heard of a big bore 460 running strong!

Who does the tank holder?

Something ain't right about the saw itself, but the tank wrap sure is cool.

I'll tell you what ain't right about it...The whole things been rattle canned with high gloss. Who knows how much bondo is underneath it.

It's hard to tell from a picture, but it looks like there's maybe 1 layer of Kevlar/carbon fiber on that? Not sure how much that's actually doing since kevlar/carbon fiber gets it's strength from several layers of fabric.

Sure looks cool tho!

Serial number looks funny vs the rest of the saw.

That is a custom job. You can buy all the materials for that on Uscomposits.Com

Looks cool!

I believe the seller is the mechanic in a shop in that town. Always has clean looking saws for sale. The shop will have some of the same saws listed in their ads at times. Do like the the tank.

Fingers were in it. I never tore it apart to look or put a wheel on it.

 

[DELETED (Struggle)]

That looks paper thin too me. Could be faux carbon fiber sticker? It does look nice though. I just don't see where it is an advantage as I think really doing carbon fiber attachment to a plastic handle to reinforce would seem not cost effective?

Way too heavy to look authentic in this case. If done properly you can barely tell it. This one the covers are "over done".

I gotcha. I know Lance Newcity is in White River Junction, and he sells some cherry saws. I bought a bunch of his NOS Pioneer stuff years ago.
