I figure, I've got some leftover silver metallic from the Rocketear, and some red that I can shoot on it for the 442, or get a cheap qt. of alkyd enamel for a gold bond. Gold bond or not...to me, it's just another 413G unless it's an absolute cream puff, but then I'm not that type of collector. A GB lantern is a different critter though, but I won't pay for what they go for. Doug

Just had second thoughts on the old jackstands...I think I'll paint them harvest gold instead of 'turd' brown. They will be easier to see/find!
Tomorrow's project...soak them and clean them...but realized I don't know what to put on the threads so they don't rust again

I was really tempted at the end. Really tempted. Dang I wanted those. But instead I bid on a 275 without the etched glass globe with a cooler (no sticker...makes me wonder if it was a repaint, but if so, who cares? I want a brown one, and will buy the correct sticker!)
So I'm part way to my dream set up.
Guess I need to look for a truck tomorrow to go with my new brown Coleman!
