Sometimes we get lucky. I was wanting a 68 CC Lombard. And actually won the E Bay bid on a non runner. $56 including shipping and tax!New fuel line and filter and kitten carb. and its a runner. We posted a U Tube video of me using it and a 58 CC Homelite to make a couple cedar fence post. Im confident you will have that beast going pretty soon!
Hey Leon, I would like to know more about this saw, I have an XP-1100 that I am trying to get running. Mine has the 2 oil service ports, trying figure out which is which for engine oil and chain oil. I have had it running and tried to rebuild the cab. I have good spark. Like you I would like to bring this beast to life.
Nice saw. I’ve been thinking for a while that one of those with .404 chain would make a good alternative to a 090 for an Alaskan mill. Maybe that’s just a pipe dream, but what do some of the guys that used them say? They were for sale for a very long time. Good luck with it. Thanks and take care.
Now that is a monster Homelite.
I love the big homelites
Very nice saw i absolutely love it!!!!!!! Great find!!
Maybe it is Ford Tree Service. That is an awesome saw

Recently my company bought 4 Peugeot 208 cars with smaller engines than this saw has. We live in the f***** Europe!
Ford free service might be service without any Ford in it.
Great looking saw man! Found my dad's old one and decided to clean er up and get it going again.
I have a 1966 XP-1130G, the early onem really awesome saws

Can’t wait till you get it running
Looks like a Beast 👍
what a score, Leon.
Could be ford tree service, I know a few old timers that do that on their saws
Has anyone ever worked on a Baird-Poulan? These were Canadian as I understand it & were issued in the '70s.
Thanks for this Leon. I am redoing a 1020
Dang I love it nice saw
Actually the manual says it takes a HL222A, HL261A, or HL273A
Make sure to make a nice video (1, 2... as many you must) working on that baby! From the picture in your channel, you already have a XP 1130, right?
Kid with a new toy, lol! Bet you sleep with it, lol!
