    That Mid '80s Sanitaire Brochure

    Thanks for posting Ben. Its neat how the Widetrack II was basically two normal Sanitaires glued together! Not literally of course. But I would like to hear it work, I bet it would make some noise beating the carpet. I mean, we all know the noise of just ONE VGI brush roll slamming the carpet...

    What cleaner is this brush roll for ?

    Looks very similar to the brush roll in my Hoover Converti, except my brushes are black.

    My Livingroom

    Hey Doug, excellent photos! I really like the Electrolux ZC90. I hate to derail the thread, but I really like the copper work on the dive helmet. PS I am still working on the manuals.

    I return! With a Hoover 661 Convertible!

    And here is the underside of the Canadian machine. Good Housekeeping seal and everything. This is my first upright and I seem to be enjoying them!

    I return! With a Hoover 661 Convertible!

    Here is me using the floor brush. The brush is excellent and the whole set up is very maneuverable.

    I return! With a Hoover 661 Convertible!

    Hello again! The other week I went to the vacuum store and was talking with the owner, I asked him if he had anything neat or unusual show up. He said an elderly couple dropped off a Hoover Convertible with all the tools last week as they no longer needed it. So once I saw the vacuum and what...

    Elux System 90 Find...Free!

    Yeah I have wondered that too, I got a few wands that are yellowed a bit/faded. How can you fix that?

    Elux System 90 Find...Free!

    Good looking machine! Great find, I saw a LE on Kijiji with a 2100, for 100 bucks, but the problem is its on the other side of my province. : &#92

    Look at this

    I found these guys about a year ago, and I always found they wanted outrageous prices for Electrolux machines, they wanted $250 for an AP280! It's too bad because at some points they have very nice machines, and sometimes have most, if not all, the matching tools.

    What Sanitaire does this go to?

    I've seen one PN very similar to that in the vac shop last week. It was a BOL Eureka Ironside/Power Team style machine, powder blue in colour like this forum.

    Oh nice Eureka canister! I saw one on eBay a while ago but I let it slip away... Enjoy it! Very nice, powerful, and loud machines!

    Where do you get them???

    I usually go to buy and sells, thrift stores, and other place like that. Nova Scotia has SLIM pickings in these places, and I do go often. I've only ever once found a vacuum at a buy and sell, and it was my FQ 700. However, Kijiji/Craigslist is where the gold is here. So that's where I go.

    Your Favorite Eureka Power Nozzle, 1973-1990

    Thats my favourite Eureka PN too. I love the Power View. The only problem is that I don't have a belt that has markings on it, so I don't get to enjoy it as much : ( I love the sound these PNs make with the VGII.

    Eureka 1746B Roto-Matic Power Team

    I purchased this off eBay at Christmas time, it sat on eBay for a couple of months and I got tired of seeing it there, and just splurged and bought it for myself for Christmas! Alas, here it is. Its a Eureka 1746B. I need to find a new hose and a floor brush, but aside from that, the machine...

    Favorite Hoover Slogan?

    I like the "Hoover, nobody does it like you!" Especially when sung like in this commercial/song.

    Very Nice Find: Electrolux Epic 6500 (charcoal gray)

    From the pictures the machine looks like show room condition! I love restoring them too. I find Electroli always look awesome once they are cleaned up. I live in Dartmouth, basically its Halifax. There isn't much to chose from! There is an SAP up on Kijiji right now. But not too much. Paper...
