COLEMAN LANTERN & STOVE CO MODEL 426C THREE BURNER STOVE MADE IN USA 1962 - 1964

Description

Welcome to a Happy-Campers2 Auction!
Up for auction, and your consideration, is this Coleman Model 426C Three Burner Stove!
The Coleman Company began production of the 426 series of stoves in 1949 and lasted until 1980. When a change was made in production, Coleman added a letter suffix to the Model number. The stove in this auction is 426C. The 426C had a short run from 1962 until 1964 according to the International Coleman Collectors Club book,
Guide to Vintage Coleman Products 1900 to 1983.
This stove is an early one as the book states that Coleman added a production date on the underside of the fuel tank tabs beginning in late 1963. This stove has no date under the tabs.
The stove is in excellent condition. It has for sure been used. The paint on the stoves has some chips and missing paint as does the fuel tank. The pump leather has been oiled. The fuel cap gasket is new. The stove pumps up and has been holding pressure for over a week. It has been tested and it works excellent!
Not gonna blow any smoke up your skirt here. This stove unpacked weighs nearly 23 pounds! Shipping will be expensive beyond the west coast. We will ship via UPS or FedEx Ground as that will be the least expensive way. For estimated shipping cost, please contact us BEFORE bidding!
Coleman 426 stoves are like a tank! Built to last and this one, even though it is 59 years old (+/-), is ready to continue!

PACKING: We pack your items the same way we would want to receive them. That is, we pack to minimize any chance of breakage. Lanterns are disassembled of globe, vent and bail handle. The globe is bubble wrapped and then placed in a coffee can or separate carton before being placed in the shipping carton. All other pieces are bubble wrapped and all voids are packed with suitable light weight material so that all parts are immobilized inside the shipping carton.
Fuel will be emptied from all lanterns & stove before shipping!
SHIPPING:
PLEASE NOTE! Due to items being damaged with combined shipping, we will combine only TWO won items per shipping carton!!
We use USPS Parcel Select for the majority of our domestic shipping. However, with the Postal Service now using more dimensional weight, we may use FedEx or UPS for ground shipping if it will save a buyer some dollars.  International shipping is via Priority Mail International. Of course, if your item is within First Class weight limitations, we will ship First Class Mail. We will combine shipping when possible, but no more than two won items per carton! Please feel free to email us for a shipping estimate. We try to ship your item within 24 hours of received payment.
NOTE: Since we do use PayPal and eBay shipping, it is impossible for us to change the final price of an auctioned item. We are sorry, but we are unable to falsify any final sales price to avoid tariffs or other fees.

We will also attempt to find a less expensive shipping alternative when possible.
