What model of Stihl is this?

031-032......mayhaps?

Measuring the bore will help in figuring it out.

The felling spikes look good. It is old for sure.

It's an 045/056. the 031/032 choke lever is on the air filter cover.

Yep. I just went looking, and it appears to be an 045. Based off of the recoil side.

The muffler makes me think 056, if it is an 045 it's a late Super.

 

[Definitive Dave]

if you are planning to buy it measure the cylinder, the larger 056 Mag2 cylinder is the most desirable and might be worth more than the rest of that saw

Is there a way to easily measure it?

Not really unless you consider removing the top cover and muffler to get an open view into the exhaust to drop a tape in it.

I agree with Jim looks like mine but I need a muffler for mine.

Here is a saw that I just came accross that may help you determine if this is close to what you are looking at. Craigslist ad so the listing may disappear.

[RI Chevy]

Nope. Too old for my liking. Just trying to help out in this thread.

Remove the muffler and use a Popsicle stick. Run the piston up to crimp it a bit. Measure with your dial calipers. Accurate to plus/minus 1/64".

That's what I was looking for. What about using a length of solder?

 

[Wood Doctor]

Looks like an 045 to me. I have one just like it sitting on my bench. Mine is better cosmetically, but it's non-runner and lacks the double bumper spikes. Loggers used to buy these, but they switched over to the 064's and 066's when they became available.

If OP or anyone else needs a parts saw, please PM me.

After resurrecting an 048, I've sworn off antique Stihls.[emoji37]
