I found a PaPa Bear last week on Craigslist and was able to make a trade with a guy from the area where the stove was located, He bought it and I met him in Cadillac and gave him some Honda ATC stuff for the stove.

Stove is in need of facelift but otherwise in good shape. Should be an easy resto.
 
Here's the problem, got 3 Bears hanging around my garage!

If you have more than 2 Fishers your a hoarder!
That Papa is an early mode with the ball handle. Any markings on the bottom?
 
This just kind of occurred, a bunch of Honda 3 wheelers found my garage as a safe haven too. I'm not hoarding, just protecting them, if you think about it.

No 3 wheelers for me but I do have a Mama Bear which acts as a back up heater for my house, a Papa Bear I had to buy because it was in decent shape, only a few miles from my house and it was only $100, and a Baby Bear, same deal as the Papa. The Baby will go in a cabin I hope to build in WV, the Papa will go up for sale this winter.

I feel better. I do have a 3 wheeler! 1985 Honda 250 SX in mint condition. Runs great and actually was on it today.
