That's a USA-made model 141. I've rebuilt and sold several over the years. I still have one I use. Very quiet and strong. Not a bad price at all for a rebuild kit.
If you're used to being spoon fed with Shiny from China stuff, leave this to others.

Below from the 1997 price list. To adjust for inflation, multiply the prices by 1.88. That will be the quality level saw you'll be rebuilding.

That saw has a Furnas NEMA mag starter. Judging from the paint details, it is an ex-school shop machine made in 1990. The motor looks to be single phase but the ad doesn't say. That saw won't take a riser kit, obviously.

To each their own. If I wasn't currently living 700 miles away I would be on that like white on rice!
