Sad to hear
I owned a Silver King blue knight back in Tucson It was one of the best machines I ever owned.I would love to find another here in Delaware.
Ditch the motor
In my forteen years of working on vacuums I have found that electrolux motors built after 1984 are not worth rebuilding.My advice is find another electrolux upright and harvest the motor.
They are all great machines
All the vacuums mentioned are all excellent deep cleaners,it all comes down to price and availability. I enjoy using my hoover guardsman and sanitaire 886 with added kirby fill tube and paper bag set up,if you find a good condition eureka f&g boss or 5 amp sanitaire...

Very good choice
I have had three this last one I purchased at Goodwill for $8.99. The six amp. motor has lots of air flow and takes A bags. I saw several used ones on Ebay for under $100.00.
Hi folks well the weather is getting nice and hopefully more vacuums will be poping up, I am now looking for a Riccar 8955 for my small collection of machines.
