RE: Maybe a group purchase will work out?? Small world, Ontos. I grew up in Vernon, about 5 miles from you.

RE: Ok .. sounds good .. over.. Good news everyone! I finally got Shawn Coleman on the line and got some cool prices for everyone who wanted stuff in the yard! Will be Emailing everyone who was interested in stuff. Here's a couple interesting prices on things: Pioneer tool kit trailers...

RE: Re: RE: Maybe a group purchase will work out?? Just posting to let everyone know I haven't had luck reaching Mr. Coleman this week, although I have left messages and asked a couple others up there to have him call me back. He may be out of the office this week altogether. Will keep...

RE: Re: RE: Maybe a group purchase will work out?? The tractors are so-so condition at Romans. Not too many parts left unrusted on them. However, an enterprising person could buy them all and make one or two good ones out of them.

Re: RE: Maybe a group purchase will work out?? The M578 at Roman's has been demilled, by cutting a patch of the turret out. Also, it has been sitting in a wet field for at least 20 years. Would take a really dedicated person to rebuild it, but it's a shame that its sitting in a paintball...

RE: Maybe a group purchase will work out?? Yeah, guys. I can help put together a deal, I can call Shawn up on Monday and try to see what he can do. If anyone wants anything out of the yard, shelters, trucks, tool trailers, kitchen trailers, M416 trailers, etc., PM ME by Sunday and I'll see...

RE: Maybe a group purchase will work out?? No idea what Shawn wants for the deuce in back. You'll have to call and talk to him about it, or visit the site. There were about 6 pioneer tool trailers there, I'm sure he can go cheaper if someone wants to go in and buy all of them. I'd be willing...

RE: Pionier trailer CitizenSoldier, no addl. pics, but the pioneer trailers were $750 and complete. He just wants them outta the yard. The maintenance truck was $2500 with the bed, or $1500 without. Another note: if you're interested in any stuff in the yard, DO NOT go on a Saturday...

Re: RE: Trip to Coleman 1-888-4SURPLUS. Word to the wise: Shawn DOES NOT know what is in his own yard, so just keep that in mind when talking with him. He rarely gets a chance to leave his cubicle in the building. If you want good answers about yard merchandise, ask for Tom, he'll know more...

RE: Trip to Coleman I got to save a few things from the scrap man that day, among the lot I saved: two LS-166 speakers, fair shape, good for parts two military turn signal switches two M249 SAW rear buttstocks one excellent cond. GRC-193 mount for M151 jeeps remains of an artillery fire...

RE: Trip to Coleman May not look like much, but this is a rare bakery oven trailer back on the edge of the lower yard. This would make a great pizza oven for MV shows, and Shawn doesn't even know it's there! Anyone know what these things are? Look like new IR searchlight housings... Did...

RE: Trip to Coleman How many camo net spreaders do you need? Unceremonious piles of scrap metal bulldozed into piles. There's a little green stuff in them piles. Another kitchen trailer. There's a row of M105 trailers just behind it. A herd of water buffalo, grazing in the lower field.

RE: Trip to Coleman A shop van body in the back. M915 cab riding missionary position. This would also be a cool camper body for a deuce. Couple deuces in the back 40. They are mostly complete, waiting for rescue. They could run with little effort. Engines are multifuel diesels...

RE: Trip to Coleman A handful of BIG axles. Need some for your rig? Antenna 3/4 ton trailer, genset trailer next to it. Right next to the scrap piles. M880 Dodge, one of the few left in the back. Pretty well stripped inside, bunch of parts in the bed. M915 cabs, stripped...

RE: Trip to Coleman One of the yard tractors, a deuce. Not bad, but beat up a bit. A pile of deuce bed tailgates waiting to be saved. How many high security padlocks do you need, sir? Wide view of the yard, note the piles of bulldozed scrap metal.

RE: Trip to Coleman At Coleman's Surplus, CUCVs are half off. A nice restored deuce and a M1008 truck in AF Blue. These have been sitting here for at least 5 years, Shawn wants a little too much for them. A M880 back in the weeds. A friend of mine was going to buy this rig, ran nice and...

Ah, my favorite place to go. I love going to Colemans surplus in PA every so often and walking the yard. Never know when you're going to bump your foot on a piece of something you've been looking for, or not looking for, you're whole life. Weather was beautiful, which was odd, since it...
