    I have several 041 Supers, as well as several 051's, a couple 075's, and an 076 Super.

    Here's my ported 051 wearing a vintage 42" roller tip bar....

    My 075's and 076 are in boxes still awaiting their rebuilds....lol

    Did you repaint the bars on those saws or are those just white new bars?

    Beautiful work sir! What do you use as paint, or do you powder coat the parts?

    I'd like to restore a couple to mint condition and keep as display saws.

    just rattle cans........if i remember right i used almond for the off white color it was a close match to the early white and "husk red" from TSC it was a real close match to the early red/orange that was used in the 60' and early 70's, the top air filter covers were NOS stihl, you can tell how close the colors match on the 041av with the "husk" paint.........
