That's what my wife asks. I told her it would take too long to explain how I got a chainsaw from Ottawa Quebec and Missoula Montana the same day and two ,ore arrive the next day from Fremont New Hampshire and upstate New York. I have three Canadian saws, two made for Homelite by Terry Industries of Pointe Claire Quebec and a Pioneer saw from Peterborough Ontario. The Homelite-Terry XL-76 is a 58cc automatic oiler that is fairly hard to find, but the other Terry saw, the VI Super Mini SL is even harder to find, especially early models like this one with the newly developed chain brake. I acquired a second one year Homelite XL-850 (82cc) a week or two ago without a bar and chain and found a NOS bar and chain cheap. My two recent arrivals are a 1966 Homelite XL-800 another 82cc auto oiler that is extremely difficult to find, and the other one is a HUGE 115cc Homelite 2000-P Automatic with a 28" roller nose bar. I'm looking for a few 54cc XL-100 series auto oiler saws and a couple more 115cc saws, then I might have my Homelite collection wrapped up

A few more photos. That's all Folks, I thought I'd taken more than this.

My friend has some old Homelite saws and I know one of them is #1 real old #2 it's big. I even want to say it has a 36" bar and it screams when it wants to run. Another thing he has is a hydraulic driven two man chainsaw . I think it's a Von Ruden . It's all self contained as one unit . There's a pump that hooks up to a pto and tank that sits on the ground or mounted. Two hoses go to the saw . The teeth on the saw if I remember correctly are like a 1/2" wide and the bar is 48" . Definitely something you'd not want to getaway from you . I found a blurry pic of one in use and a smaller saw with tank pictured .

Your getting quite a collection. I spy a motorcycle wheel. What is it?

Hi all, and of course Westwood fans that may be interested... I have bought a 1978 W8 Westwood gazelle 'pale face', starts on the key. 8 horsepower, column gear change. I have recently replaced points and condenser which seemed to of solved the problem, as before when the mower ran for a few minutes the engine used to cut out. I have also replaced air filter for the first time in 39 long years! 😂 I have also given the engine numerous amounts of oil changes as when I bought the mower last year there was lots of residue like sludge left in the oil. After all the work, engine starts and runs lovely. ☺ About a month ago... I was cutting grass and tried using the clutch and the clutch wouldn't stop the machine!!! So had to shut off the machine before I nearly collided. 😂😨 Only to find the drive belt had slipped off the pulley. This has made me by a new drive belt with two new pulleys. The pulleys arrived but wasn't convinced they were the right size, so I sent them back. Kept the drive belt. Unfortunately I am having troubles with finding the right size pulleys for the mower. If anyone has a pair of unused original metal Westwood Gazelle pulleys for sale, or know where to find some. Please tell me. Thanks. Here's some pics of my Westwood last year.

Matchless G50 500cc Norm, 7R was the AJS 350cc version. Matchless G45 was the 500cc twin.

Cool collection Alain

Take one cast iron Barfords implement seat and a disused pedestal of a bird bath, what do you get?
