    Found this with an old friend on my vacation back home in Nebraska. Constellation 454. Not bad for $10. In great shape with most attachments and caddy. Hes going to restore it and sell in future. Some other random sightings as well from today.

    Restored/remanufactured Kirby Dual Sanitronic 80

    BEAUTIFUL! I sure miss mine. The most perfect Kirby I've ever seen/owned by far. A lot of work went into it that I could never replicate again Just realized this thread is from my old account too. Wow that was 9 years ago. Odowds really did the best job in the world on my machine. Miss that shop!

    I have one I bought from Kyle K (myvacsrock) many years back. Have had it ever since. Been my main vacuum for years now. It works great and is very quiet and leaves a pleasant smell.

    Hoover Model 425

    Beautiful machine. I used to have one many years ago but I do recall it having a cover over the belt. Odd to see yours without one

    Carpet out of fashion?

    I just want to find a house here in Vegas that has carpet. Every home ive ever looked at or been in has no carpet at all. They are entirely tile throughout the house.

    Going to vac shops as a kid?

    I loved going to odowds vacuums in omaha. They have thousands and thousands of vacuums from the earliest and up. It's maddening to say the least. They have to shops. One is very run down. Hundreds of antique vacuums shoved everywhere and piled on top of each other. In dirty dark unlit cavernous...

    Parents new Rainbow

    Well my parents got talked into a new Rainbow. Honestly didn't know they had a new one since the blue e2   They seem to love it. My dad was hard to convince but likes the filtering with water.     How are these? They said the monthly payment plan is pretty astounding.

    I'm back in a new town and a great haul

    Thanks! The hoover 29 really does pop.   I had to snag the mixer. The gentleman had many other non vacuum things he had to get rid of and told me to take what I wanted.   I didn't have a mixer and been talking about buying one but didn't want to splurge on a kitchenaid so this worked out...
