NEW Stihl 08S in the Box

[wolfcoln]

Bought a Stihl 08S brand new in the box with all the original manuals, bar cover and tools.

Now I need a brand new old stock bar for it. Anyone got one????? :msp_unsure:

Quite the saw, what do you think? :msp_biggrin:

Wow awesome saw ..find of a lifetime

 

[kwtx]

WOW! Been looking for some NOS -- how do you go about finding this kind of stuff?

 

[PogoInTheWoods]

How much?

 

[wolfcoln]

How much?

This was an purely accidental find. I have the box it came in with the orignai warrenty too, I give $300 for it which I think is a pretty good price. :msp_biggrin:

I don't normally buy anything old other than Stihl 040's and 041's, but I just could not pass this one up.

 

[PogoInTheWoods]

Outstanding. I just got mine running today. Picked it up a few weeks ago for 60 bux. All original and complete, but was dirty as all get out. Was fortunately stored without fuel in the tank and fired first pull with a direct prime. Took a while to get the diaphragm pliant and the funk washed thru, but it purrs like a tiger now.

But you still suck.:hmm3grin2orange:

All kidding aside, there's an old school Stihl dealer just up the road from me that may indeed have a NOS b/c setup for an 08S if no one else chimes in with a source for ya. Be happy to check.

Hey Pogo,
That would be great. It would be the one with the big stripes on it. Let me know when you get a chance. :cool2:

Once I get it back to Michigan and get an original bar and chain, I may fire it up, just to see what is is like. If I do I will make a video of it and post it.

LOL... got to love it though when you wipe the grime away, put a little lovin into a saw and fire her up so she remembers the good ole days.....

 

[CR500]

Defiantly a really good looking saw that's for sure.

 

[MacLaren]

Nice. Im happy for you. I grew up with an 08S. The only saw we ever had until I was about 17, then daddy got the 2094.
I dont think he ever realized what a jump that was. Taking absolutely nothing away from the 08S. To this day the 08S will fire right up.

I'll nominate this one for "Find of the Year"

Thats freakin awesome. You'll be the envy of Brad Snelling and many others. It's hard to believe you can still find a saw like that NIB.

Makes you wonder how many old killer saws like 08's, 090's, 076's, Mac 125's and etc., are somewhere sitting in the world, brand new in a box hidden away.

 

[zogger]

That's really a sharp lookin' saw there!

 

[Nardoo]

Nice saw! You need a bar that looks like this:

Accident on whose account? Yours or the guy that had it.

Nice find BTW!

Nice find. Looks like it has the stone cutter power head style muffler on it.

Was Tommy trying to make his point again which brand is still number 1 :hmm3grin2orange:
