Pinch me! Unbelievable.

Looks good, but the 1951 theory is obviously wrong - as is the 8hp one. :censored:

It won't bring what it would have earlier in the summer. 090s that were bringing like $1500 are lucky to bring $1000 now. The economy has really hurt the value of saws like this. Pehaps it just brought the price down to where it ought to be. For example, there's a 090G with a BIN of $995 right now. That saw would have likely brought $1500 or more a few months ago. That's still a lot of money, but now is the time to buy a big old saw like this. Myself? I'd rather have one I could run. It'd be a shame to fuel up this 55 year old virgin saw.

That saw is located a little over 1 hour south of me. Maybe I need to go down a take a gander at it.

Wasn't someone chasing a top cover for one of these recently?
lots of good parts on that saw.

 

[blsnelling]

He certainly hurt his listing though with Lightning being spelled way wrong.

 

[Stihl 041S]

Are you still talkin' saws?

Cause if you fuel up a 55 year old virgin, you may never shut her off.

LOL. You dirty old man

 

[Dewaynep]

Just wondering, but would a saw of that vintage have had a yellow/clear fuel line on it? Seems to me it would have been plain black? Definitely a very nice saw though. Most times you find something like that it wasn't stored right and is corroded or the paint is peeling.

Gotta love that high tech top cover latch!

 

[davefr]

Complete with the cosmoline paper!!

Yup...That was me and I WAS hoping no one would post this on here. Now I don't have a chance of winning the auction. Oh well...Anyone got a top for a Contra/Lightning?

Like anyone would ever use a saw like that for parts

You'd probably think twice before Snellerizing that one, right?

I feel your pain Carl, I've been on this rant a few times before... it never does any good.

I'll never understand it....... not worth getting your blood pressure up over though.
