You better buy that saw as quick as you can :o,
that is Husqvarna's historic first model chainsaw they produced............ the A90 first introduced in 1959.
Seeing the Volvo car and license plates that is the birthplace country of that saw. In the first year of production only 350 of these A90's were sold to the pro market.
 These early Husqvarnas never made it to North America. 
Making a living with a saw since age 16.

This is a MS90A or 90E. Not the first ones, but could be 1960 or 1961. It is missing some parts and have the Stridsberg bar by the looks of it witch indicate it is a E rather than A or replaced bar...

It is not Swedish plates on the P1800....

The first series of 350 saws made in 1959 never left Sweden. Officially they did not start production until 1960.
Then they were exported too. MS90G were sold in North America, but was not something that market was looking for.
The MS100 was made to accommodate the requests of larger cubic's, but was never much popular either.


Chainsaw nut!
