    1981 Montgomery Ward (Eureka).

    Thanks! Yeah that canister pulls 100 on the suction tester! Pretty impressive! =). I wish I was old enough to have been at Sears, and MW and JcPenney in that time period. I barley remember when MW closed down here in ITC the very last day. =(

    Anyone Know Around What's Year This Eureka Is?

    And it is more like 1975 '77 or 78 would have been way too late. There were logos patched on the bags in the earlier days too. I have several ranging from 1973-1976 that are like that. Not to mention since it is a 1410, that was still early in the 1400series. The model numbers were pretty much...

    Anyone Know Around What's Year This Eureka Is?

    If it was a Kmart model... It would have been a 600 series, instead of a 1400series.

    Mint 1976 Eureka Self Propelled.

    New find for the Vacuum Cleaner Gallery at Jae Place!   This is a rarely seen, early 1976, Self Propelled Eureka upright model 5040A. This one is VERY unique. It not only sports the rare vinyl bag, with those beautiful foil decorations, it is also only 3.7 Amp model, versus its 6 amp...

    Paging Dr. Gasko! Paging Dr. Gasko!!

    No it is not for the Air-way.... Because the one for the Airway was marked as such. This one bears the Eureka name, and was created for the large commercial Eureka canister. Phillip Muller is the only other one who has one of these.

    Ambassador III making noise, engine slowing down

    You mean the "Motor" Not the "engine". A jet has a Engine, a vacuum cleaner has a Electric motor.

    The Brady Bunch machine you are refurring to John.... Is a 1020. What 4 machines are you missing out of that pic?   Just a note to the original poster for sake of education. The green 1020, is not Bali Green like your 1030. The 1020 is in Spring Green. Spring Green is more dull, and a more...

    Wheels for the Hoover 150

    I have replaced those bag straps before... Once you see how it is put together, its not terribly hard to accomplish. For the strap its self, what was originally used is called cotton twill tape. Made from 100% cotton fibers (that's probably partly why the broke...), go to your local fabric...

    Private-Label Kirby Cleaners?

    I was going to say the same thing as.... Oreck_XL did, but if you ask Kirby, they claim that that they didn't make any private labels, or knock offs. Those were made my Scott and Fetzer, NOT Kirby...lol...Which is obviously mincing words because Scott and Fetzer IS Kirby..lol...   Ben, I...
