Thanks so much! I could have sworn it had bags and the wheels were yellow , but this was years ago! The second one in the picture you listed looks more like it! Now that I have a name to go with Eureka, I can do more research! Thanks again! :) -Michelle

Electrolux 1205 LUXURIOUS!!! (Pun intended!) Shocked nobody else used that! :) -Michelle

Hi everybody! When I was a teenager I used to work as a housekeeper for a Hotel chain. I know I worked there between 2002 and 2004. I've been searching for this particular Eureka for years!!! I would love to find out if someone knows what this vacuum is and can provide a picture of it...

Joe & marks_here Thanks for the compliments! I just love rebuilding and restoring stuff! I will be posting videos and pictures of our chainsaws soon! :) -Michelle

Throw Away Society It's a shame...I'm only 29 and everything I use basically is at least a decade or older than I am! I've just begun collecting vacuums, but I can say from experience that I will only buy old!!!! Here's my experience with newer vacuums: back when I first moved in with my soon...

tolivac Very cool in what you collect! :) -Michelle

super-sweeper I know what you mean! We just went garage sale-ing this morning and Sammy bought me a General Electric stand mixer for $2.00! I'm in the process of cleaning it up as we speak! I'm thinking it's from the 1970's. :) -Michelle

tolivac I don't collect axes, but I do collect vintage circular saws. I'm kinda getting into old wooden hand planers! We've got 3 so far, but could see that turning into more! -Michelle

tolivac I'll keep you informed on the Wright. My husband knows more about it than I do, so I'll ask him and share with you what I find out. I love hand filing our chainsaws bars! We actually don't have a bow saw or a two man saw yet! Those are on the list! :) -Michelle

super-sweeper Cool finds! I love flea markets! We just went to one a few weeks ago. That's where I got my vintage fan and electric Craftsman chainsaw. Also, at that flea market I got an avocado 1970's Sunbeam Mixmaster stand mixer for $8.00! All it had was the turntable, but it looked like...

tolivac We have a 1963 Wright model B520! Our landlord gave it to us. It had sat at his work place for I think 15-20 years! Eventually we will re-build and restore it! I love that it has a governor! The Wrights are very unique! I've never used one personally yet, but you gotta enjoy a 2...

super-sweeper Hi! Phyllis is doing great! I haven't had a chance yet to even clean her up yet! We've been so stupid busy lately! Let's see, if you read above, the stuff I'm restoring doesn't even begin to top the list of stuff we're trying to get done! Besides that stuff I'm restoring, we...

sharwo7 Hi! Those are interesting hobbies you got there! I forgot to mention that I also collect vintage circular saws and vintage push mowers! I only have 2 push mowers now, got rid of like 3 or 4. I kept the one my husband and I restored that I named "Barnaby" and one we garbage picked...

gsheen Always have to have a backup of a backup of a backup! Ha ha! Vacuums are my newest and latest hobby. I own the least and know the least about them. That's why I love this site and the people who talk to me and educate me so I can pursue this hobby even more! My number 1 hobby is...

Tom I concur, our hobbies take over! It's nice talking to you too! I've met a lot of nice people on here! -Michelle

Tom Let's see, besides my 4 Lux canisters I have 2 Kirbys: a DS50 and Heritage II, a Hoover Convertible, a Sears Kenmore Twin Fans, 2 Dirt Devil hand vacs, a Hoover brush vac, a 1940's Westinghouse hand vac, and a newer Dirt Devil upright that I'm not happy with. The 2 Kirbys I got on Ebay for...

Shane Alright sounds like a deal! I will send you an email. Thank you! -Michelle

Tom I have a sick feeling that I'm going to end up collecting every Electrolux canister model! Ha ha! I have 2 1205's; the one my husband bought me because that's what my mom had/I grew up with and the other one is my mom's, she just passed away in September. My husband and I are going to...

Shane That's sounds good! So, are you selling to me the whole 1205 or just the motor parts? I will purchase just the model G (no attachments) and the 1205 for $75.00 + shipping. Let me know if that's what you meant. I'll wait for your reply and from there I will send you my address privately...

Tom Beautiful Golden J!!! Great price wow!!! My husband and I prefer to buy stuff that needs TLC! :) -Michelle
