From a functionality/performance standpoint, the Model 1692 is my favorite. I like its sleek L-shape and low profile, its more powerful motor than the PN1, and the headlight. I use it mostly with my gray krinkle-finish factory-refurbished Model G but also with my Grand Marquise.


 


For nostalgia purposes, it's the PN1 -- the second version with the Model G that has the cord plug at the hose handle. That's the version I remember seeing most, with both turquoise and tan models.

P/N 1 version 4

that is shown has the elbow that came out with the telescoping wand that came with first 1205. Elbow was changed shortly after and looks like the P/N 2 elbow. Nice collection of pictures.
 
Thanks for the responses electrolux137, tig21er, and kenkart. I was hoping to generate responses like yours regarding your favorites and additional information.

As for the telescoping wand of the PN-1, I thought that came later, like '69 or '70. Somewhere (probably on Vacland) I saw a RIBBED TEAL wand on a teal PN-1, so I thought that would have been '68. Just saying...

If anyone has a complete list of PNs/PN versions (Electrolux USA to present Aerus) and their orginally-matched machines...or at least might mention or post a pic of those that are missing from this thread that would be great.

I would like to get to a point of being able to match PNs, attachments, hoses, etc. with their original machines, so when I'm out and about or eBaying I have a quick reference. I personally prefer to purchase machines with their original accessories/versions.

Maybe I'll do a Hose Hall of Fame or a Floor/Rug Tool School sometime...haha!
 
The Brown Pn 4 was the 3rd version. There was also a gold PN 4 between the silver and brown ones that came out with the last of the Super J's.

In the same series there was also the PN2000 in Grey that came with the CB2000.

Thanks for the information and pic Collector2. I gather that your PN-2000 is a Canadian model?

Here are some more models I found:

PN-N106M (75th Anniversary Guardian, Models C134A & C134B--housing/trim colors appear to be similar to the Model S!):

Collector2,

Thanks for the info. I knew the pic had come from a CB2000, but I didn't know that the commercial vacs came with their own power nozzles. Do you know if that pn model was used throughout the CB2000 run?
