Hi Guys

 

I'd like to pick the brains of those more knowledgable than myself if I may???

 

I picked up this beast today as part payment for a job. I know it is a Contra of some description just wanted to pin point the exact model..... I'm hoping it is a Contra S but not sure how to tell. Could just be a Contra AV.

 

The muffler is definately not standard, looks homemade but the rest of it is in amazing condition for the age.

 

I can't find a model plate on it anywhere so wondering if there are certain things to look for to find out her full name?

I'm going to get her fully serviced, an original muffler fitted then put her up for sale as, as beautiful as she is, we already have plenty of muscle saws and I wouldn't like to lads using this, she is a bit rustic.

 

Thanks guys
