Here it is with two other Vacuums I own from the Windtunnel Family.

Now it can be part of a happy Hoover family (plus a Fantom Fury Special Edition and a Bissell Powerforce).

I finally got it fixed For those of you who haven't seen the old motor here's a picture of it. The Next photo is of the new motor.

I just bought a new motor for $69.95 on ebay.

That's what I'm probablly gonna do but even if I do have to buy a new one, I only paid $30 for the machine and a new motor would cost around $70, so I still would spend less than I would to buy a new SP Windtunnel.

I opened up the motor housing on my new/used Windtunnel and it looks like a lot of moisture got in there. Do you think it'll be okay or should I buy a new one? Here are the pictures below and the link is for the thread I created about the vacuum yesterday...

Thanks Gr8DaneDad I hope it runs well to and I hope to find out tomorrow. More pictures will be posted soon.

Hopefully Walmart or target sells both of the belts and both of the filters for this thing. I'd get them today, but payday isn't till tomorrow. I'll be getting new type y bags tomorrow for sure. I'm also gonna get a can of air and clean the motor housing out too because judging by how bad the...

It took a while but I finally got the brush roll cleaned. There was A LOT of hair. I also took the end caps off and put a little bit of 3 in one oil that I had lying around on the brush roll bearings. The brush roll does look after market but it seems fine so I guess I'll keep it.

The Brushroll was chuck full of hair as you can see in the photos.

I bought this on eBay for a little over $30.00 (that included Shipping.) Even thought the condition of the machine is a little rough, I thought it was a good deal. I haven't run it yet as I want to give it a good cleaning, new belts, and new filters before I do. I'm also out of type y bags and...

I just sent you an email about that. Judging by the picture, I don't think that will work on my Power Drive model as that handle part looks like it's for the Concept One and Two Power Drives from the late '80s and early 90's. Thanks again for looking though and emailing me.

I've looked locally the closest is over two hours away. I'd be paying the same amount in gas to go and get it as I would pay to ship this one.

It's under $50 to ship it to Illinois. The total cost of buying and shipping would be around $60-$65.

I really like the WindTunnel Supreme but I don't want to buy the new ones that TTI makes (The motors sound different). The starting bid is $19.99. The side is cracked (it looks like the handle assembly) and it looks like it could use a new brush roll. Other than that, the seller says it operates...

If you come across a Hoover Concept One Power Drive from the late '70s or early '80s, I need the handle support piece. Mine cracked when it was being shipped to me back in January. If you could find one that would be great. Below is a picture of the part from a message thread I made back in...

By the way This isn't mine, just thought it was an interesting find.

A morph between a Hoover Runabout and a Hoover Soft guard is on eBay. Two Elite style Hoovers in one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-hoover-vacuum-clernerhoover-convertiblevacuum-cleaner-/271499185996

You can buy the motor and brushroll at vac parts warehouse. Here's the link: http://www.vacpartswarehouse.com/Bissell-PowerForce-Bagless-Model-6579-s/597.htm The motor was almost $50, so you may want to consider buying a new Powerforce vacuum, but if it has that much sentimental value...

Thanks PoconoVacMan.... I did glue the handle back together and it's drying now (The strongest glue I had was elmer's wood glue hopefully it works) but if it doesn't, I might be interested in that handle. I just now gotta figure out how I'm gonna fix the support part on it.
