Came across this Yates Y-20. I don't really have a need for it as I have a Oliver. But I never seen one in the wild so I could not pass it up. I paid too much for it but sometimes that's how it goes. Looks like an easy restoration. It has a lot of iron for a 20" saw this is really heavy! The only thing I can find wrong with it is the blade guard on the working end is missing and it needs tires. The Top has some rust but it is just Kalifornia rust no pitting. I think I will put some tires on it and play with it a little.
