Tag is on front of rewind was riveted green metal tag if there. Probably is gone though, I’m sure it’s an early contra looks like it doesn’t have a tank vent. Does the fuel tank cap say Stihl on it ? Old ones did then they changed from that. It doesn’t have a tank vent that I can see so very early contra.
Oh also if I remember right and I might not as it’s been almost 40 years since I ran one, I think the serial number was stamped on a placard that was riveted onto the saw 👍🏼
I just googled the location for the serial number it says it could have been on a plate near the muffler maybe it’s gone but super cool anayway if I had any extra money I’d buy it
Don’t know a thing about the contra but a 090 has a metal top cover. My guess is someone used an original metal cover complete with part # as a template when they molded a plastic reproduction
The side of the jug will have a model stamped on it that you can find the mm bore.
On top of the cylinder there should be a spring loaded decomp that needs to be held i. While cranking

Yes auto oiler they get a pulse from the crank case like a McCulloch and definitely an 070 top end👌
Can you imagine the stories that saw could tell? Looks like its been through a war or two 😂
Fix it up, paint it pretty, run it. This has been mostly saw channel after all.

Looks like fun.
na 070 had a sideways plug also take some good pics and use Google lens
She is a conta been set up with th later 070 pot ❤
Fun saws to tinker on
Take that to a dead engine race, talk smack, it would be funny
You can find the serial number via the tree claw on top of the edge of the case
090 should have a 6 shoe clutch.
At 1:20 it looks like he is doing something, if you get me 😂
Sick puppy. I like it!
Donny Walker might have a video with some Contra history.
Your mic is picking up a buzz, maybe from a bad light ballast.
Old crusty remains a mystery. Wish I knew something about them to tell you.
👍👍 Contra, contra, contra….070. That’s contradictory.
Wish you could do some cutting video s
