Hi friend, I'm quite interested in the Hoover Convertible w/ the funkey bag.
I'm in Angola, IN. 46703 if you would let me know what you want for it and the shipping, I'd be glad to send you a money order for the amount.
You may phone me, if you'd care to...260-316-0783.
Thanks !!!

Issue With Shipping
I have some Issues with shipping...
I Don't have a Bank Account.. I was with Key Bank.. Then My PayPal Got hacked and my Bank Account was drained.. I just never made another one.. and, I figure until I'm 18 I don't need to.
The other issue is, I'm Awful at shipping things.. And I'm Afraid of breaking something in shipping... I've bought more things online than I can count from Amazon and Ebay that have come broken... (Including un-returnable stuff)
Bottom Line..
I'm not trying to be needlessly difficult here guys...
It's just so much work to ship a vacuum...
Sorry
Ian

Well I got the price to have a shipping company pick it up and it was way more than what I expected.

Ian, You Can Do Both!
I also collect Lawn-Boy mowers. I have 8, with the oldest being a 3100 from 1957 and the newest being a 10323 from 1998 (I think). I also have a 3057, 8229, 7210, and 3 that I can't remember the model #'s right off hand. My 3057 has the same engine as your 5024, but has an 18" deck.
There are 123 vacs in my collection, mostly vintage, of various makes and models, including a 153 Royal from the late 40's or early 50's, pictured here. But yes, you can collect vacuums AND Lawn-Boys!
I am within reasonable driving distance to Cleveland, but it looks like the only vacs that you are parting with that I would be interested in, I already have. But hang in there, I'm sure someone will step up and take them off your hands.

Jeff, Ian and all,
I have one vintage mower: a 1984 Toro model 20672 walk-behind rear bagger with blade-brake clutch (BBC).
What that feature is, when you start the engine the blade will not turn until you engage the bail bar; let go of the bail and the blade will stop, but the engine will continue to run - useful if you want to move things out of the way of the mowing path or to empty the bag between mowing sessions.
And for Jeff: do you wish to find the same Clarke-badged, red-painted model 153 that Ian has? His is a 1976 model.

If you have seen my Collection videos (On YouTube Channel) You know what machines I have..
The think Is, I Could fill my garage, Shop, Basement Etc.. But It puts a crimp on My life (School, Work, Girlfriend Etc..) and I Have another project which is dying for space in the basement.. About a year ago. I came into possession of about 30 Boxes of model trains.. And have decided to build a huge layout in the basement..
The vacuums Put a Crimp on that... So they need to go..
The Lawn-Boys Are in the garage and I am fine with the 4 that I have.. I used to have about 24 Lawn Boys and 2 other mowers but I have seriously cut back on the collecting as of late..

Forgot something
As for the Clarke..
I am alright to part with it.. Although That is one of the vacuums I would like some money for.. It's almost in Mint condition and I think I have Hose and tools to go with it..
I used it quite a bit and it's a great vacuum..
I think I might also still Have a set of about 15 different brushrolls for it.. Each different.. for different rugs I guess???

I'm Interested!!
I don't think I'm anywhere near cleavland, but I drove there once for something with my dad and we left mid morning, got there spent 1/2 the day there and got back by night so I think I could make the trip. I am very interested in that Royal/clarke, the royal canister and the electrikbroom. But since I would be making a day trip out of this, I'd be happy to give others a good home n put them to use. pm me or I think you know my youtube account, vacmasterthegreat.
