    new green bison

    I remember the auction and will be watching if you do decide to sell as I just love that machine. It's too bad when you have to part with stuff you'd really like to keep, but life happens.

    July Update

    Some pics of the Montgomery Wards Here are a few pics of the Wards vacuum. It's more of a mess than I thought. It has scratches all over the hood and handle. The plastic end cap on the handle looks to be a little chewed up, bag has hole down by the dirt port, dirt port also has a hole in it...

    Unknown Kenmore upright

    Hello Robert May have been a good thing to pass on that one as bags are all but impossible to find for those vacuums. Still a neat vacuum as it was a cord-away model. The one I have doesn't have that feature.   It also looks like the plastic bag clip is missing, I've shown what it would...

    July Update

    Hello I have a Eureka made for Wards, not sure if you would be interested. It's like a burnt yellow color. If interested can post some pics. Randy

    Finally a version of my most sought after vacuum

    I assume that the bag would often get overfilled, which would explain all the dust and stuff under the hood?

    Finally a version of my most sought after vacuum

    Can't wait to see it when it's done. I love it! Hey, do you know the year it was made and what it might have cost new? Just wondering.

    How about "The One" What eveyone in the U.S.A has been waiting for!.... or maybe not. I have NO idea what Hoover was thinking on this one.   I just recently got this from Josh the Dys0nb0y. It may be ugly but it's mint! It's been used just a couple of times.   This is one of just a few...

    English Hoover 652-A

    The picture is a bit misleading as 3 of the convertibles in it I've custom painted. The purple and blue model 70 and turqouise model 69 should have pearl white bases. The coral red 728 should have a light taupe base. Most of the Hoover bases were white, but every once in awhile they'd do...

    what really grinds my drive belt

    In the Batcave of course! Actually kind of all over. Think I have about 50 displayed around the house, another 25 or so in the garage and the rest in a storage unit. It's amazing how many you can cram into a storage unit. I'm starting to think that their multiplying all on their own!!

    Another Dillusional Ebay Seller

    I'm gettin a little nervous!! Haven't heard back from the seller on this machine and am beginning to think this thing could indeed sell! I'm sure multiple offers are now pouring in. Maybe we could form a pool of say 200 to 400 members each chipping in say, 50 to a 100 bucks each to raise the...

    Nothing says 1968 like...

    Very well done! I thought it was great! We need more stories like that in the news.

    the dirt that every vacuum misses.

    He just proved that a Kirby does a great job cleaning carpets with it's bag or with that stupid Keeler bin attached. If he was vacuuming new carpet he'd be pulling up stuff no matter how many times he went over it and with whatever he had attached to the Kirby. What I don't get is why would you...
