I am going to quit collecting and swear off colemen stuff......... ......tomorrow ..... maybe ....... I think ! :NC

Anyways might as well show you todays finds.

We have all seen these things here and there, but why buy one to just take up room? You can't buy the fuel anymore.
Well I saw this at a huge junk sale this morning....cheap.
But what to do without fuel???

well on the other side of the yard I found these.......

Image

Later on when I was testing it I found a full can of coleman brand in the storage slot...

Image

Here it is burning. It took awhile to come to life, but did fire up. $ 5.00 total.




Image

Image

A 1975 502 stove. This one is as good or better than the one I already have, and I paid good money for it.
This one ..... 50 cents

Image

When was the last time you saw any walmart fuel??
Half full can .....$1.00


Image

Coleman storage box (new, unused)
50 cents (but I didn't have change so I paid $1.00) :cry:

I think I see a sale in my future to thin the heard and reclaim some space in the garage.

You did good Keith to find that propane stove and fuel. Any idea what the case fits? or what fits the case? how ever you wish to put it.

Randy

oh and $0.50 for that 502 is a steel. as if you don't already know

Yea I am gona quit too. Just not yet. I think that case is fir the 288. As for the butane stove -- they can be converted to propane. There are cool conversions at the ccf forum.
