    Check out my newest addition to my collection. Original owners son was selling it. He said he remembered going with his dad to the Stihl dealer to buy it. Then used it to clear the lot that the house is on. Oh ya also came with manual and extra chain. image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

    I didn't mess with it but the owner said it sat for two years and it wouldn't start. I'm going to guess its got some bad gas in it.

    Thats not an 08S.
    But rather a more rare specimen.........08
    The lack of ignition switch and oil tank are a giveaway
