very cool! What is that grey thing over on the far right of the picture?

Airway swivel top. Holy smokes!!!

I know of a couple other of those bags in collections awaiting a machine. Lol very special bag you got there.

Branded Wizard Citation by Western Auto

I found another variation of this HB in the archives (Chicagomike's pic)

Oh Jimmy, I would love to come down at some point. Maybe sometime this early Fall after it cools down a bit I can gather a small group and come. Or just Shaylee and I. She has expressed interest to me about coming. Would you happen to have the plate and brush roll for the HB upright?

Its the first one I've ever seen. Do you remember what color the one you saw was and what the bag looked like?

The last 2 pics didn't really come out clear. The one picture has stamped on the bottom April 1974. Not sure if this was the manufacturer's date or service date. The last picture says Clinton Industries a division of scovill model 471

Ok folks here it is Very filthy but I will get her cleaned up. I found this in an old defunct vacuum store last year.

haha agreed!!!!

ok I dug my HB upright unit out of the bag room because this thread has re-inspired to move forward with my making of the HB nozzle. Does anyone know if it matched the Airway tank in color? My upright is all off white with a brown bumper and no label or markings whatsoever. I will try and...

Sean, I called and changed your car reservation. Instead of an olds 98 There will be a 76 Gremlin waiting for your arrival..... I can just see you driving it.

That just means like awesome, good for you, sweet!, etc.

Great vacuum, this one is mid 1960s. Not really worth much as far as being vintage. It's pretty rough to be of value but it is worth fixing up. Amazing vacuums and parts are still available.

I am ashamed of myself. I didn't even pay attention to the color lol Had it been chocolate, then there would be a good reason to go hey wait a sec, but the fact it's copper screams it was thrown together lol

To bad it's not the electronic model.... It would be a "shocking" experience for the Tri-Star. hahahaha

I thought FQ did make a hepa cloth cone now?

The logo also appears to slant downward a little. At least to me it does. Where are you seeing the model D3A? I didn't see that in the pics.

Charles, Vac-toilet!!! I didn't even notice that's what it looked like. Yes this is a waste. I too am all for repurposing a vintage vacuum if it's beyond repair but make it count.

I have a red and a grean. I only need to keep one. Which do you want?
