It's being willing. I found out early that most men, regardless of cause or need, aren't willing. They blink an eye or draw a breath before they pull the trigger. I won't. ~ J.B. Books

Probably a McCulloch 47 or 4-30.
woman kick your @#$%^😍
Don't have a clue what kind of saw that is but I have an outboard motor that looks just like it (without the bar) 🙂
No idea, but she is cute !
no shoes? maybe slippers. I would wager she was one tough gal
I thought she had on high heels?
Check out those biceps!
i first thought McCulloch or maybe a custom built. took a lot of displacement to make power back then
Kind of looks like a Clinton saw. I would say she is in shape also.
Yes she is wearing heels... bet she was a heck of an arm wrestler...
Yep, most likely. There weren't a lot of choices back in those days, and McCulloch was top dog pretty much.
As an aside, I know the nephew of the fella who invented chainsaw chain (as we know it) and founded the Oregon company.
Looks like a 4-30, They are bringing premium prices at auction web sites ! ... $500 to $1000,00
FYI - They weighed in at about 30 lbs. > Miss Smith is a HEALTHY girl !
Chips aren't flying but what are, are huge! Big bite on the chain and lots of hp to pull it through.
I have an I-43 Mac from the 50's that still runs.
No heels , her left foot is flat on the ground, right foot she is on her toes
I cannot see her left foot but she clearly has a shoe on right, may or may not be heel as it isn't shown...
