Only the plastic name plates fit the new style top cover I have new rivetes and metal tags for the original top cover and recoil starter if I ever feel like making it back to original.The plastic name plate on the top feels so cheap on such a classic. They should be metal riveted.
I know that Stihl still produce the 070/720 in Germany. Idk about the 090Didn't Stihl make those things for non-Western markets into the 2000's? Echo still makes a big dinosaur, the CS-1201.
I think the ms260 as well. There's a Russian guy on ebay selling them.I know that Stihl still produce the 070/720 in Germany. Idk about the 090
