After Years of Hunting, I Finally Found It - What a Discovery!

[@claytonbailey5457]

Absolutely loving all the recent shop videos. Feels like I'm spending time with the grandpa I never got to meet.

[@wranglerstar]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@StoneysWorkshop]

you’ve upgraded to grampa cody!

[@claytonbailey5457]

@wranglerstar thank you for making this content. My grandpa was a career carpenter and your channel has taught me some of the stuff that I imagine he would have had he been here.

[@hisnameisiam808]

​@wranglerstar my brother, a great rust converter I've found is Eastwood rust converter. Much love from Oregon!

[@iSmxtty]

Never met my grandfathers I completely understand your comment

[@squeelerwheeler7753]

Couldn't get enough of the vintage camping gear vids.

[@Jordan-ql6tm]

Really do enjoy them

[@pauldiesel4582]

I was in Japan last month and came across a Coleman camping store that was stocked like I had never seen in the states. In the back was a complete service shop for stoves and lanterns. I was amazed at all the spare parts and their respect of how well made the Coleman’s were made and their desire to keep them working for years to come.

[@richeyrich2203]

Can you share the store details so we can support it?

[@TokyoCraftsman]

I’m in Tokyo, where is the shop, I’d love to go have a look.

[@inthemountainswithken]

So many childhood camping memories with those stoves. My step dad always greased that leather pump gasket with butter, and it worked like charm.

[@scottyfromthe80s]

Fondly remember my old man cooking pancakes & sausage on that exact stove for me and my brothers on many a camping trip. Miss you Dad.

[@jjsworkshop1359]

When I was a teenager in the mid 60's we started going on camping trips and my Dad got a Coleman stove just like that one. Some really great memories cooking on that stove. Of course my Mom or sister would do the cooking but I sometimes would pump it up and light it.

[@filster1934]

I can't go a day of yardsaling here Colorado Springs without seeing a vintage Coleman stove. We must have a target-rich environment.

[@logankowalyk2580]

Basically all youre videos are 10/10 but these shop videos where you restore equipment or reorganize something are my absolute favorites

[@GooseBBQ]

These old shop maintenance & restoration videos are certainly giving this Texas coast man the Fizz

[@allenchong9816]

Although this might not be the usual video these days but brings back the best part of this channel where you used to do it back in your old wood shop. Such episodes gives me the fizz

[@morrisjunction]

I’ve been “rescusing” camp stoves from garage sales for years and, lo and behold, I have a 425C in my collection. And it needs some serious cleaning! Thank you for the inspiration, I’ll be digging into this project soon.

[@twodogsyyc6729]

Im 51 and we had the exact same Coleman stove and toaster. The smell instantly brings back childhood memories of sitting in the Canvas Tent having coffee at 5 am waiting to walk cutliines for moose and elk. Thanks so much for sharing. You cant buy quality like this anymore.

[@familygene9030]

The hiss , the smell , lots of great memories

[@dieseltrucksfirewood2540]

I thought the exact same thing.

[@carlhendricks349]

I love those stoves. I camped many days with my father and mother with them.

[@1boortzfan]

I love watching you rebuild these old pieces.

[@daniilbrovin6877]

This stove was/is Canadian Army standard issue for winter tent groups. Works well and is reliable.

[@Potrvlb]

I just don’t understand why we’ve gone away from the classic, last a lifetime when properly cared for gear, like this fantastic stove. I remember using one of these as a kid in the 70’s camping at Brighten bush every summer, all over Oregon actually such great times as a kid. Excellent work, Cody.

[@bthemedia]

Beautiful seeing old great equipment “made in the USA” being restored to useful service! 👏

[@Spodikus]

I have a very dirty camping stove like your one and thanks to you I know how to clean. So thankyou and stay safe. From France

[@ArkansasPilgrim]

I had one of those that I bought in the 90's to use when I went out observing. I heated up plenty of water for coffee to keep warm with in the middle of the night, and cooked lots of breakfasts, too. I think I gave it to my brother-in-law.

[@Ravespillo]

Wow, my dad cooked us up an unfathomable number of lil smokies off this same stove model up in the Sequoia mountains up among the redwoods. This brings back quite the flood of memories!

[@ecleveland1]

It was SOS or beanie weenies for my brother and I anytime dad took us camping. Along with Vienna sausages and crackers.

[@lucascox3750]

I have my great grandfather’s 413 E camp stove that has a copper tank. Thanks for uploading your video. I got it completely cleaned and working now!

[@markparker9092]

I’m 73, we had one to those when camping as kids. The gas ones were much better than the newer propane ones now

[@supperwelder]

That hiss and blue flame brought back so many memories from my childhood and youth only ours is a 3 burner❤❤

[@pearlssbu8749]

I grew up watching you and learned so much through you. We need to see you on a major podcast to just hear you talk for an hour+

[@pearlssbu8749]

A proper interview

[@ThaneAnderson]

Thank you so much for doing this, I’ve had three of these very early models that work but need some tuning and cleaning. This video has me absolutely hyped to follow along and fix them up!! This made my day!!

[@fruitfarmfords8243]

I'm 37, had toast from one of those toasters on one of those stoves for the first time 30 years ago on Nebish Island Michigan. Good stuff.

[@glentharp716]

Those toasters were in our Scouting patrol boxes!

[@jayonez137]

I literally have three of them on my shelf from my grandpa. You are more than welcome to them, my friend. I will send you all of them. I do not use them anymore. My hunting camp has a real freestanding oven/stove for the past 10 years.

[@philiptruitt]

Thanks Cody!

[@meye0897]

I have this same unit and can’t wait to take it apart and clean it up! Got mine after going through nine of those small green propane cans. White gas for the win! Also got the lantern.

[@0perator3rror]

I purchased one of these from a garage sale many years ago. After I fired it up and used it, I went back and bought the second one he had. 2 is 1 🤝

[@Corndog4382]

These videos are great. Restoration is always fun to watch

[@nh603]

We love these restoration videos gentlemen, do we not. 👍🏻

[@BattleChemist]

Excellent restoration and ingenious design... having that brass fuel pipe go over the first burner means it's pre-heating the fuel before it comes out of the burner, allowing it to vaporize quicker and possibly even build a little pressure.

[@pauldemerchant1612]

Thank you so much for this video you brought up many fond memories for this "east coast man "

[@mattcarman2840]

That is a gem, one hell of a find! I can hear my Grandad pumping it up earlier in the morning to start the coffee on the elk hunt! Nothing better than the smell of white gas burning in the Coleman stove in a canvas tent! Love it, thank you Wranglerstar!

[@mattshaffer5935]

I’m blessed to have my Dads 425 stove and 220E lantern from ‘58. Both working but need some attention. Watching intently Sir. Thank you!

[@MrLandonL]

Loving all of the videos lately! Feeling like how it did when I found you 5 years ago! This is the stuff we love! God bless!

[@rpc3972]

I have a 425e that was found in a barn. Cleaned it all up and works like a charm. I’ve also purchased adapters so I can run it on white gas/gasoline, propane, and butane/isobutane. It runs excellent on all of them, and it’s always great to have options

[@tincankiller6454]

Those old Colemans were and still are the main go to stove for outdoor camping, parts still available some way over price. Yes, mud dabbers and old gas-rust are the biggest culprit for issues on those. If you find one of the 3 burner models those were handy for a base station stove. Thanks for the video

[@rhess2989]

I found two of these at the local second hand store only with round copper tanks , did a refrib on it and works like a champ and the other will be a Christmas gift.

[@artfisher1615]

I have one in the shed just like it! It was my grandfather’s. Haven’t used it since the 90’s when I bought a propane stove. The video makes me want to clean it up and use it. I also have his red single mantle Coleman lantern.

[@brettrohloff6263]

Best gift I was ever given! Tickles my heart to see this video! Prayers from KS

[@sixstringstruggle6508]

Best stove made. When you first made your campout box I couldn’t believe you didn’t put one in it. So exciting. I have two of these.

[@jctalks1]

I own a Coleman stove from the late '40s. It belonged to my dad who bought it new. I plan to restore it. I remember him cooking our breakfast on it camping many weekends.

[@quintinnelton4189]

After years of wanting a full white gas set up, I worked on a guy at church’s truck and he rebuilds and sell Coleman white gas stuff. I was blessed to get a full set of a heater, stove and lantern as payment for work! I’m so ready to use them more and I will cherish them for life and pass them on!

[@maggaman1603]

Nice, I struck Gold too, I found a brand new Coleman 3 burner at a thrift store for 7 bucks. It still has the cardboard sleeves around the fuel line ends and also on the corners of the wind shield. Coleman started stamping the month and year they were made on the bottom around 1971. Mine has 3/92. The boyscout in me loves this stuff.

[@Crxpert1]

Wow! That burns clean. Nice and blue.

[@fixing4fun]

I think my favorite part of your videos is how you take the time to do everything right. The little things matter and they are often overlooked. Thanks for another quality production!

[@mikeylikesit6622]

Like wearing two watches and no shoes 😂

[@eire711]

When I had an antique shop these stoves would just stake up in my outdoor/military section. They truly don't make things like they use to.

[@genehammond7239]

The sound of the burner brought back memories from years ago !!!

[@mattjohnson891]

It’s really satisfying watching all the content on making good vintage tools and equipment!

[@ratride1]

Thanks for an informative tutorial on restoring a Coleman stove.

[@jeepnwithdog]

Cooked many a meal on stoves just like this newer and older. All great Coleman products. Well done and thanks for making this one.

[@Huma270]

East coast NY here. i have been enjoying your content for many years. Great video

[@Jim-Wade]

Brings back memories from 60+ years ago. I still remember the trepidation the first time I lit one without supervision. Glad you were able to find one.

[@BretteCaldwell]

Over the years I’ve accidentally became a Coleman collector. I have one of these, plus six different stoves. Not to mention 16 lanterns. I use them and quite enjoy them. Looking for a copper funnel like you have. There should be a date stamp on the stove.

[@That70sChannel]

Same. I keep running across different ones in Goodwill each one nicer and older than the one I had before

[@waylondunkin3175]

I love the restoration videos, I like seeing old things cleaned up and working properly again after sitting for so long.

[@stevieadamoschek9293]

I'm 64, back in late '60s, we camped every summer for a week in a tent, My mom ,dad and 4 kids. I still have my dad's Colman gas stove exactly like yours. Colman made quality and durable products.

[@MarkJarz]

Ditto. I’m 63. 7 of us siblings in canvas tents North Woods Wisconsin.

[@stevieadamoschek9293]

@@MarkJarz we were in the Adirondacks, black flies and mosquitoes, I didn't realize till many years later how hard it must have been for them.

[@tweakingheavily]

my favourite kind of wranglerstar vids recently, the classics! axe videos, and all around the shop! i love it!

[@utah_jake3501]

Congrats on your new to you stove! I really enjoy working on old Coleman lanterns and stoves

[@richardbaumeister466]

My Dad had one of these in the sixties and I remember the smell of lighting up the Coleman stove up to make pancakes in the early morning. with eggs and bacon but not before coffee and hot cocoa for everyone to wake up. What great times we had leaving Grand memories of camping with the family! Thank you!

[@harryfaberiii3261]

Still use that same stove today. Will use it next week when we go camping !

[@alexvenn2741]

Love the restoration videos! Keep ‘em coming!

[@ArkansasPilgrim]

Super Clean is EXCELLENT for cleaning stuff like this. You should make it a standard shop supply. Great for cleaning circular saw blades, too.

[@RanchoFiascoMike]

A great video. Love those old Coleman stoves. Remember the scent of the burning white gas and cooking bacon and eggs at sunrise in the hunt camp and that was right after the percolated coffee was done complete with coffee grounds in your steel cup.

[@ranman5501]

My 80 year widowed neighbor just gave me her husband’s Coleman stove. It needs rebuilt and cleaned up. What timing!

[@pastorammo]

Love the video and the stove. We OG subscribers saw the spill coming from a mile away. 😅 God bless.

[@leecolclough2492]

Still have a coleman 440 single burner stove n my son or daughter will get a hell of alot better than anything modern or from a certain far eastern country do love the new videos Mr W 😂👍👍

[@alexgraham12345]

My neighbor has no less than 15 of these stacked up on a shelf in his garage. I have one myself. Portaged 5000km (3000miles) across the Canadian shield with these stoves in my youth. So like 17 years ago.

[@KernowEDC]

Thanks for always keeping your silly mistakes in the video, Cody. We all make them and it adds to the viewing experience/fun of the video when its authentic. Too much online stuff is over polished these days and it doesn’t help fill those willing to learn with confidence if the pros (Prohos) seem to be doing everything perfectly and not making mistakes. Well done on the restoration chaps! It’s also neat seeing your tool cabinet organisation in these videos. I’ve just ordered my first for my garage workshop to run in random with my bench and am super stoked to get it setup to maximise my workflow! Keep the great content coming.

[@KernowEDC]

*tandem. Darn autocorrect…

[@918scott4]

I grew up with that exact stove. What wonderful memories!!! I bet it is still somewhere hidden in a corner of my garage.

[@shwankerson]

I from Wichita, KS and used to service Mr. Colemans pool. Very cool!

[@sbrown307]

Great find. I remember the Scoutmaster using one of those decades ago, us Boy Scouts had to cook over a campfire. Use camp fuel only; unleaded gasoline will gum it up. The gas stoves are much better than propane because they are more fuel efficient and will operate in very cold weather, but they require a lot more maintenance. It is the perfect "prepper" stove. That one is a little rough. It is not hard to find them in like new (only used once, LOL) condition.

[@Yo-Yo888AA]

Well you can find pieces of them"only used once" LMAO

[@slabnsteel3550]

[@glennbayley5863]

Fantastic video world of beautiful stove. I have the 2 burner lantern and the single burner lantern. I wish I'd never got rid of them a lot of years ago now. Thank you

[@ryanbailey6600]

The king of stoves is still made in the USA! Partner Steel Co., Inc. first opened its doors in Pocatello, Idaho in 1947 as a custom steel fabricator and wholesaler.

[@Down.Range.]

I have the exact same one. Found it in a transfer station. Completely restored it. I use it often in my outdoor kitchen area. I bring it in during the winter. Good find brother!!

[@JacksonDiddles]

We had one of those when I grew up in the 60's...seeing that really brings back many camping and hunting memories.

[@gus1911]

Honestly, that was old fashioned brilliant! Thanks for sharing.

[@wranglerstar]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@cjacob9875]

We got one in the garage from my family camping days!!! White gas!camping toaster!

[@Unit13FREMSLT]

I remember using one of those camping back in the 1970's. Awesome video!

[@19ghost73]

Genuine WRANGLERSTAR-video with "I spilled gas" in it. ;) Great stove restoration & start up, thanks for sharing!

[@JapanScott1]

I think the 425C is what I grew up with. My dad bought one while working at a grocery store in about 1955 or 56 and we used it for all our family get togethers in my youth. I was just talking with my brother and he has the stove with him in South Carolina, and when he gets the money to do so he’s going to send it to me here in Japan. I’m excited and looking forward to it. Thanks for the video!

[@aleepiazza7125]

Our family of nine had meals cooked on a stove like yours as we camped from Indiana to Orange County California and back in 1975. Thanks for the good memories.

[@karsonbranham3900]

Yes indeed, love it! “Campaign kitchen”, well named!

[@mothership5489]

I managed to snag one just like this at a yard sale today, and its in mint condition. I watched this video a few days ago an really thought the old stove looked very nice and wish I could get one too. this video help a ton with getting it stated and it works great!

[@theonecalledgr]

If no one else has mentioned it: on most safety caps like that, you can pop the outer plastic portion off, leaving just a normal screw on cap underneath. I've done this on fuel cans, medicine bottles, and all manner of annoying caps. Some are one solid piece, but most arent. Worth checking.

[@toddgingrich2415]

An Camp Stove and a proper one at that!

[@qbertatx]

I used to work for Coleman at their New Braunfels,TX plant back in the late 80's. Guy I worked with gave me one of these. Still got it and still forks like new.

[@nathanielbacon584]

Appreciate this video, I picked up a used stove recently too! Didn't get the deal you did but more then happy at $30. Feel better prepared to service it now. Many memories with these stove on camping and moose hunting trips with my grandfather in northern Maine.

[@orionfixr7713]

My Lord! This brings back so many pleasent memories of my childhood . My Uncle John had one of those stoves. I can remember stopping at the same gas station on our way to the lake for the white gas. Can't tell you how many hot dogs, hamburger and fish I ate off that grill>

[@Coppersaguaro]

I still have my Coleman two burner from Boy Scout days in the 90’s that my step dad bought. Made in Kansas. I’ve been using it recently when my glass stovetop went out. Works perfectly.

[@davidosborn6915]

My grandmother was great friends with bud and Betty Coleman , as a teenager I was allowed to shop in the company store as a holiday gift,

[@fredjacobs1827]

Hi Cody, I don't comment much but love your stuff! Just a suggestion on the resto. Use copper grease on burner screws, not too much! And carnuba wax on painted sufdaces. Thanks for the video Hope your healing up well!

[@jamesparker1185]

Cody, love these restore videos. Make more please.

[@ward185]

I remember a stove exactly like that when I went on hunting trips with dad back in the 80s. We had one similar there too but it must of been one of his friends. Great video

[@Taterherron]

I love to go to flee markets and find neat old stuff like this, it’s the little things.

Used these many times in my scouting days. Eagle Scout 1991.
