That thing looks pretty wild!
Is the blade on backwords?
I have no idea as to value,sorry.
I sold a couple of brush hoops on ebay
but cant recall what they brought, but they did pretty good.
Good Luck with it.

Saw bigger one that had separate motor sell for $60 last fall. and no, that blade is NOT on backwards. Note the tooth on the leg, it digs into the log to hold saw in place and keep log from rolling.
 
Cool deal.

How do they drive the blade, is it just pinched by that little roller on the side?

And that is the throttle on the top, must hold it differently than I was imagining?

There is a ball bearing roller on the opposite side of the blade from the tapered wheel that is mounted on the engine, and when you squeeze the handle on top it both opens the throttle and moves the wheel over against the blade to pinch it between the rollers and turn it. There are a series of rollers around the frame that carry the inside of the blade. For blocking they were easy. You set it down with the back end of the leg on the ground and the tooth hooked into the wood, and just squeezed the handle and pushed the saw down (spring on the leg pushed it back up). Felling a tree was not so easy, you had to hold the whole saw up on it's side and push it into the tree. Picking up the blocks close to where it was being used was a pain, it was pretty loud and the exhaust (no muffler) came out the side via a small rectangular elbow and blew right at the person picking up the blocks.
