Classic Coleman camping equipment

Didn't know if this fits better here or in General Discussion - please move if needed.

Is anybody into restoring/collecting classic Coleman stoves or lanterns?
I have solo camping gear, but my wife is starting to get interested, so I picked up a stove and lantern on craigslist for $30.
The stove is a 2 burner Powerhouse 413H (single fuel) from Feb '87 and the lantern is a 2 mantle Model 220F from '72.
The stove works but looks a bit rough. The lantern doesn't work and looks even rougher. I've got it pretty much torn apart; now I just need to clean everything and reassemble.

Didn't know if anyone else had been bitten by this bug...
