+1. I love it when a 16 year old kid tries to tell you they never made a $2 bill.

Flyboyfwa

Two nice additions. They look great.

Welcome to the forum from the Fort Wayne area.

Flyboyfwa

Definitely a 500. Stable, adjustable, and wife approved!

Flyboyfwa

Beautiful pics Duane. Thanks for sharing.

I want to thank everyone for attending the gathering. I don't think we could have possibly had better weather. It was great to see old friends and meet new ones. Turnout was exceptional. We had 75-85 collectors in attendance. When you count families and children we were probably closer to 100. I kno...

Flyboyfwa

You can tell it is after WWII because that's when they went back to brass doorknobs instead of steel ones.

Flyboyfwa

That looks great. Welcome from NE Indiana.

Flyboyfwa

That sucks! Hopefully they can repair that without too much trouble.

That would be great. Thanks!

I am looking for the following items if you happen to have them.

Round 500 stove grate
5114 globe (275 globe)
"D" fiber wheel for a 327
30's earlier valve wheel for a Canadian 242

Years ago, I worked air freight, I loaded a plane like that every night. I forget the name of it, but the back opens up like a c130, they have a surprising amount of lift capacity for a small plane. I remember one of the pilots saying that was because it’s like a “box kite” almost every surface was...

Like Rob said we are having our annual Great Lakes collectors gathering at Gordons Campground just north of Kendallville this weekend. Plenty of guys who can help you understand what you have or would be willing to buy some from you.

Flyboyfwa

Is it from an AGM 3470, kerosene? Hope I got the model number right.

Flyboyfwa

Nice pickup!

Flyboyfwa

Looks like a Shorts Skyvan. Fly to your vacation and take your car with you.

Flyboyfwa

We are just a few days away from the gathering at Gordons. We are trying to get a list for the group meal Saturday night pulled pork and potluck. If you are planning on bringing something, can you let me know so that we are prepared?

Flyboyfwa

Are the vavle assemblies for a 40's Canadian 242 the same as US, same time frame?

Flyboyfwa

Glad to see it running. It looks great!

Flyboyfwa

So sorry to hear this Greg. You and your family are in our thoughts.

Flyboyfwa

I don't know an exact date, but I believe in the 50's. I have paperwork for an older version with a 1948 date on it.

Flyboyfwa

I am interested. Pm on the way.

Thanks for sharing your trip. Great pictures.

Flyboyfwa

Happy 247 day!

Flyboyfwa

Sad. So so sad.

Flyboyfwa

Happy 243 day!

Flyboyfwa

I am looking for a round grate for a 500 stove. I believe I have the rest of it.

Flyboyfwa

We are just under a month away from the Great Lakes Fall Gathering at Gordons Campground. If you have not already made a reservation, please do. We are planning to do pulled pork sandwiches for dinner on Saturday night at 6pm in the pavilion. If you can bring a side, please post so that everyone can...

Flyboyfwa

Congrats on finding a nice stove.

Flyboyfwa

Looks like it's a 6/66 lantern and has a 502 bottom plate. Nice lantern. They are great, but not a pot of gold or anything else you will find on a tag for four times the reasonable price in every antique store. Plenty of people will help you get it going and enjoy it. Welcome from NE Indiana.

Flyboyfwa

We just got back from camping this weekend. We have been trying some different things for meals. It is great seeing everyone's pictures. Thanks for posting them. One dog likes camping and the other doesn't so he stayed with friends. Lola never misses a chance for people food, especially when her bro...

Flyboyfwa

Wonderful find Dave! Glad you were able to find that. Looking forward to pics of it running.

Flyboyfwa

I don't have pictures with me currently, but like everything Coleman there are several different models to choose from.

Flyboyfwa

Happy 237 day!

Nice group Bill

Happy 236 day!

Flyboyfwa

Right now I'm looking for single burner stoves. I have several 2 and 3 burner stoves, but when it comes to single burners, I only have one newer 400-sized one. I'd be interested in some of the larger ones. As for lanterns, I don't have too many nickel fount lanterns so I'm always interested in thos...

Flyboyfwa

I checked. Mine is a 3F.

Flyboyfwa

That looks like an awesome trip. Thank you for sharing!

Flyboyfwa

Congrats on that IL! I'd be thrilled to find almost any of those! Go buy a lottery ticket.

I think that rates in the "best haul ever" category.

Flyboyfwa

https://www.colemancollectorsforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=38224 Thanks for posting the link to the gathering Greg! We would enjoy meeting you if you have time to stop by the gathering while you are in the area. Another thing to see if you are near Fort Wayne is the Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Museum and th...

Happy 228 day!

Flyboyfwa

I know the answer to this. We just sold one last weekend for $10.

Flyboyfwa

Happy 227 day.

Flyboyfwa

Like Toby said, the forum is the best source for questions on how to work on them. The books are excellent, but are more of a model reference than disassembly guide. Plenty of good listed youtube videos also.

Flyboyfwa

Nice find. That's in great shape.

Flyboyfwa

Very nice 1928 slant! Reese's cup valve wheel. Looks to be in great shape.
