PM me if you are interested in this one:
Had a bit of fun, learned new things, and got to know some wonderful folks upgrading my vintage 024 AVS in this thread:
https://opeforum.com/threads/stihl-west-german-o24-avs-upgrade-to-44-7-bore.27703/
Decided to have another go at it to build a 16" saw with some leftovers from that upgrade. Received this dead 024 AV the other day from an eBay seller, built May 1986 in West Germany. Six months after the saw referenced above. Parts and fasteners are identical, for example slotted screws used in many places instead of Torx.
Cleaned up real nice...

I will soon be building a pretty little 024 with an 026 top end on it. Will be for sale when I’m done.

Great thread! I was planning on just swapping the crank, but this may get more involved…

I have a few. If I do not get sidetracked Saturday/Sunday I will look.
I have a bunch of part saws and crank cases. I would have to go through them to see what I could offer up.
