connie

Hi guys,could somebody help me date a connie?

I did think at first that this machine was a dark fawn colour which I have not seen before (it is very dirty) but now I think its grey.

Anyways,the serial number is HE A 26818

Many thanks

Hmmm tricky

Whatcha Pete

Now this is a tricky one, judging by the serial numbers I have it could possibly be a discoloured pink one from July - December 1961 or possibly a slightly later one which WAS white and grey. Does it still have the original ribbed flex? What colour is that?

Grey connie

Then its between 1962 & 1965 approx - the Senior and Junior had a similar colour scheme. I find the old connies work quite well epsecially if it has the original floor nozzle
