Outstanding find, how'd you come across it?
Can you take a picture of the ID tag?

Ok Chapmansh obviously you know the saw was made in Charlotte NC but as for the rest here you go per the serial number
1= the #1 mfg line
0= 1980, sorry not 1973 [emoji3064]
150= May 29th not 30th 1980 was leap year.
0168= it was the 168 saw made that day.
So your saw was made May 29, 1980.
It should have the Walbro SDC carb not the Tillotson HL.
The UT# 10139 is a Super 1050 Automatic and the 4 is an option specifically for that saw.

Nicely done there M-P. :)
 
That is really cool. Are the chassis castings for the 1050 the same as the C-series, but with a more powerful engine stuffed in? The air box lid and front tank cover look similar to me.
