1951 Coleman M1950

Wanted an early Coleman M1950 and figured since I'd never likely stumble into one up here went the Evilbay route and got this one in the mail yesterday. Seller stated that fuel was coming up and out the pump tube so I had the Fettlebox kit all ready to go. Came with 4 generators in total. Two clipped on one in the stove and one in the pump tube. Pump tube one is new as is one of the clipped on ones so that was nice. Swapped out the NRV pip and the cap gasket and pumped it up checking for any leaks. Came back after lunch and no leaks and still holding pressure so lit it up. Burns pretty good. Not sure what stove I need next?? lol

 

Another one of those! lol

 

Looks good Alex. Looks like you are getting into military stoves.

 

Good job. Hopefully you did not pay a ransom to those Evil Bayers. On to the next stove.

I have 3 of them myself. My one stove does not have the priming cup so its real fun to light.

 

That's the one you use with friends!

 

It had a priming cup once but it was removed by me and could never get another one to fit it. I have the original one and now that I got a butane torch might silver solder it to fix it.
