Found this beast in a friends shed. He said it would look good hanging on the wall in my shop. The engine turns over by hand and the bar oiler still works.

Model # 917.60026 serial #801110.

Good find! Those were/are a man's saw! My Grandpa had one with a 18" Blade, it was a heavy beast!

You said that right this thing is a heavy beast. I want to find some more info on it but I can't find this model on the internet.

Sorry about the two pictures not wanting to work.

I figured for my first vintage saw I should get the coolest looking one I could find. Compared to a Stihl MS210C this thing is huge.

that is pretty cool. I love going to fairs and looking at these. I can't imagine running one.

I now have the vintage chainsaw bug. I am now looking for more old saws to hang on display in the garage. I hope to get this one running just to see what it can do.

Well we did a compression test and it was very low. So going to have to find another one to get running. At least it still look cool hanging from the rafters in the shop.
