Default Husqvarna 359 59cc 5HP Chainsaw

Alright, I have enough of these in my collection, and I'm getting another, so this one is going up for sale.

Really nice saw, almost perfect size for a landowner, its got a 24" bar and chain on it (Round chisel), and it has a ported muffler as well as a tuned carb, so its around 5.5hp, with the full race muffler (Just big ol' holes drilled in it) its around 6HP. This thing will pull through softwood like butter, and hardwoods it can handle, but you'd want a smaller bar and chain. Great for cleaning up the yard, firewood, and even felling and bucking small-medium sized trees. Its a Husky, so it runs strong. Fires on the first pull when warm, takes 5-10 when cold with the de-comp valve. Chain is is great shape, just sharpened it the other day, and it hasn't seen wood since. Carb is tuned for ~500ft elevation, if your much different than that, you'll need to re-tune it (I can walk you through it if you need). Can ship it for $35 to most areas. Asking $300 as it sells for $520 new at TSC.

I'm headed to FL, on Saturday, so I'll get back to you the following weekend.

Sorry its not a great pic, my cell phone is the only camera I have these days. Its shown sitting on a 28" Black Locust (hard as a rock) I took down about 2 weeks ago, almost the perfect size saw if I wasn't cutting so much of this hard stuff.

Nice saw at a good price, I have one just like it but I'm running a 20" bar. Some body better jump on this!
