Nice score Bob!
I have a 750, there a hand full!
You'll be impressed with yours once you get it running!
FYI, The intake boot seems to be the weak link on the 750.

need to put it back in good order if it were to be a shelve
queen it wouldn't matter but i would luv to hear this baby
rattle last one i heard was in the early 80's.

I've only ever seen one of that model in running condition and
it owned by Larry S. in Ohio .That one has a tuned pipe on it .
Back in the day these were the hot set up for a race saw .I
believe this is the last of the large displacment professional
saws Homelite ever built .Their demise I'm sure had a lot to do
with changing methods of old growth harvest on the west coast
and varied ownership of the company.
During that time period there was kind of a changing of the
guard .Mac and Homelite through bad management and other factors
became lesser players in the pro saw arena and Stihl and
Husqvarna moved in .Also during those days Honda and Toyota
gained market shares and Ford GM ,American Motors and Chrysler
took a more backwards seat .It's just how things seem to evolve
over time .
