outch the sears looks beat.... as mater of fact so does that Coleman 5120...


have a lead on a 228d in riverside for cheep..... the cost of fuel to get it is going to be double the cost of the lantern.... but the dirty nickle is calling me to come save it.

i tryed to have a buddy of mine in corona pick it up for me but he flaked out.

Don't think about fuel, unless it's CF.

Not much of a friend, huh?

Probably should remember that.

is what it is i guess..... i did make it clear that i would reemburse him the 20dollars for the lantern PLUS some extra for time and fuel... because we all know our time and fuel are worth something.


anyways, just got home from work digging a 50' trench in wet sloppy clay 24" deep..... i am gonna find some grub and maybe burn off the little bit of fuel left in my 228F shakedown burn before i declare it finished after its take down and cleaning/ polishing.

Couple coats of Rustoleum clean metal primer followed by the 2-3 coats of Chrysler 232.

Ahhh, I have never used the Rustoleum clean-metal primer, which is why I didn't recognize that color grey.

Lots and LOTS of the "Rusty" stuff, however! Gallons.
