For the last half year I have been working on an older model Stihl 090AV. I have it `fully restored' (no repaint, I'm a fan of battle scars) and it's running all right. I even managed to find a nice original 70's duromatic bar for it, so it's almost done. However, I still need a chain to complete the project. The saw has a 7 tooth spur sprocket so I'm looking for .404 chain. I want square ground chisel chain for it (just for show), but I find it real hard to find this stuff. So far I have found oregon still produces exactly what I'm looking for. They call this chain "59CL": .063" gauge - .404" pitch - standard sequence (no skip). Can't find it for sale anywhere though..
* Can anyone tell me where I can buy this stuff, or provide me with a loop? (I need 92 links)
* Or if anyone knows an alternative, or has another old school chain around that would fit the 30" (75cm) bar, then I would also be happy.
Also, because I'm pretty sure everyone else here likes chainsaw pictures, here's the 090 itself:
