Going back to Coleman's on Pearl Harbor Day

[maddawg308]

I will be going back to Coleman's Surplus on Friday December 7th (tentatively) in order to scrounge more stuff. Anyone need anything in particular?

So far, I have to pick up/look for the following items:

citizensoldier wants boarding ladders
TacticalTruck needs a boarding ladder too
nickd needs data plates for a M116A2 trailer w/surge brakes
someone wanted early magnesium M151 rims (there's a pile of late model ones I have to look through)
someone wanted deuce fenders

other things I know are back in the weeds:

M123 10-ton towbars
M151 rims, late model aluminum
composite taillights
deuce tires/rims
9.00x16 tires
items from their website

RE: Going back to Coleman

Where is Coleman's?

 

[maddawg308]

Millersburg, PA. Smack dab in the middle of the state.

Don't remember seeing a M113 power pack at Colemans, but I wasn't looking for one either.

Last time i was there it was out front actoss the lot from the front doors............... but then that was like 3 years ago now....LOL

I saw fenders awhile back. NOS sitting on the ground being pushed around with the fork lift. Would have had ten or so, but everyone was bunged up.

I know the towbar you're speaking of 'back in the weeds.' It's not the monster like I have but it's a lot heavier than the medium ones. I've been thinking of picking it up...

Here's the thread with the towbar pics:

[spicergear]

Okay, edited the above list - still going. If anyone wants to join me on Friday, please let me know.

I would love some 9 x 16 tires but the distance is just too great. Have fun and please post some pics.

Well, I got delayed and didn't get to Coleman's on Dec.7th. However, I plan on going up there probably on Jan 4th or 11th (Fridays both days). Will keep everyone posted as we get closer to the date.

 

[SpruceDeuce]

as the time gets closer please post what day for sure you are going and i might be able to meet you there and we can peruse the yard

i was there last week and they had 4 or 5 nice deuces for parts in the yard i got some small stuff but did not have the right tools and i would like to go back

 

[maddawg308]

Okay, the date is set on my end. I will be going up there on Jan. 11th, for sure. I get paid the day before, so I'll have money (always a help when you want to buy something).

Anyone want to meet up there around 10am or so?
