Got an Electrolux LX

[collector2]

You also have to keep in mind how they rebuilt these machines. They werent done one at a time. They would strip down a whole batch of machines and disgard all the broken / worn out parts. Repaint what they wanted repainted. Then build the machines from that. So you could easily have parts from several different years of the machines used on one. (EG early LX bag control with the LXI machine end).

It wasn't unheard of for the Electrolux factory to change part colors / configurations and such mid stream as one lot of, oh, cords or something ran out and the next lot was a different color intended for the next year's model but they ran with them anyway on the current year.
