I love to learn more and purchase a running Homelite Bearcat 55 for a Nauset I'm refurbishing. Any feedback out there is appreciated!

My father had two 55's and rebuilt several. He absolutely loved them. They were ahead of their time. I ended up selling a running 55 several years ago complete with controls, a large box of extra parts; carbs, gaskets and a factory service manual.
