I received this from a gentleman that noticed me with my DeWalt GS motor at a motor shop. "You want another one of those?" he asked. "Sure!" said I.

This appears to be an earlier style MBC that had a blue steel blade guard rather than the polished aluminum guard. It has suffered more from disuse and exposure rather than abuse. The paint is in very good condition, but the motor bearings will have to be replaced before running the saw. The trolley bearings were cleaned up and regreased, and though rough, are serviceable. Approx age determined using Rick Antrobus' date calculator equation.
