I do not. I would guess in the 60s. I have a couple myself, on my Lightning, 08S, and S10. I'd love to find one with a large mount for my 07S.

Be careful if you do any sanding on it. You don't want to fade the stamping. After cleaning it up, just wipe it with light oil.

3002 mount, hardnose.
see if you can pick it out of the line-up.

Would it be that big fat one
Hard nose is fine. It will only be on display. I have the other 07S for a runner.Here's the saw it would go on, before it was finished.
Here's my runner. I don't really care what bar's on it.

here is an ad from 1968 showing both engraved and painted type. EDIT, sorry, this is 1974
Here is an ad from 1975 showing the engraved roller nose.
What you need to remember with these is that the powerheads and bars were sent to dealers seperate.
The dealer is the one who hung the bar and sold it. On the old engraved bars many had a date stamp on them.
If you are restoring a saw sometimes the best you can do is, "period correct"
unless it came with that saw new.

So what would you guess would be the proper bar for an 07S? I'd prefer a Stihl bar on it if they came with either Stihl or other brands. I think the one on it is Oregon.
BTW, I have a couple with the double stripes on them. They're on my 045 Super and 020AV.

Two of my Contra's, both 1962 stamped, only have date stamp near the mounting slot and had been painted blue then I have on large mount bar that is dated 1967 with the stamped logo.
I believe the 07S came out in '65. So it's in that same era.

The original stihl bars are much harder to find than the bar maker brands.
Any saw that got used went through a few bars and the junkers got tossed.
Finding those nice or NOS stihl bars is worth buying a saw to match it too.
I collect general brand bars in NOS condition. most are rollers..
I also have many of the stihl log stamp bars and some nice decaled one too but they are a toughy to find.
here's the 090 with the shortest large mount made.
This bar has been used but is in excellent condition. The saw is a 045 Super. I don't have pics of the one on my 020AV. It's the same style.

My like new 030 has the polished stamped bar on it, I believe it's 18". It's hard to find them in my area.
