    60's Vinyl Hoover Convertible bag wanted

    I'm looking for an older 60's Hoover Convertible vinyl outer bag, would prefer white or light beige, but if I can't find one, any color will do. Looking for one with a zipper, not snaps. Thanks, Alex

    I'm also selling this Atlas, comes with everything pictured, runs and works well and the hose is decently airtight. The cord is a replacement.

    Several Vintage Machines for sale

    Sure. Also selling a Hoover 28. The bag is a little faded, the brush roll is a little rusty and I can't get it out, and it needs a motor tune-up. But it is complete with all of the tools, box/caddy, hose, and some paperwork as well. Make offer.

    Speaking of Kirby Dual Sanitronic 80s

    It's a sticker that it came with from the factory when it was brand new with instructions on how to use the belt-lifter. Underneath it is a normal belt lifter like on any other D80. I'm going to leave it on. Alex

    Speaking of Kirby Dual Sanitronic 80s

    Seeing that makes me want to get the bearings replaced in mine. I'm going to have to do that soon. It ran nicely for a short period of time. I unpacked it and used it for maybe an hour to shampoo, went to turn it on and the bearings had gone bad. It has a brand new ball bearing brushroll in it too.

    Re built model 89 Electrolux..

    Very nice! I love my 86, it's a wonderful machine. IMO both the American and Canadian machines are great vacuums. I don't have much experience with American models, so I don't know how much of a difference there is in power, but the Canadian 80 series machines are definitely more maneuverable...

    I GOT MY FIRST COMPACT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Oh, cool! Looking at your pics again mine is a little different. Mine doesn't have the yellow logo under the Compact logo. Instead it has an "xx year anniversary" decal on the side. The warranty card that came with it is dated 1966. Congrats on your find! Alex

    I GOT MY FIRST COMPACT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    What does the hassock look like? Is it off-white with a glittery gold floral pattern? I have one exactly like yours that I found at a thrift shop also, with the hassock as described above.

    my hoover convertible collection for sale

    Hello Good to hear you and the seller had a nice & easy transaction! Is the 64 Citation still available? You're asking $100, correct? Has the base been repainted? It looks unbelievably mint! I'm definitely interested in it, if it's still available. :) Alex
