[QUOTE="crevicetool, post: 141722, member: 142"] Well Gary - I'm stumped with that one. Below is my Super Chief. Same machine as yours. Yours is now the fourth variation of this unit. I have seen them marked Universal, President, Super Chief and now Modernage. How cool! Other than the Universals - these were re-badged for private label by LF&C. It has the same motor that Landers made for years. One interesting thing though, LF&C cheated a little on the motors used for the private labels. They put an aluminium band around the field coil in between the two motor housings. My theory is (since it reduces air flow) they wanted the actual Universals to perform better than the private labels. Yours appears to be either light blue or perhaps Hammertone silver - at any rate, fixed up - it will be a real looker. Your switch is somewhat sunken in and if the button is still intact, it may just be a question of adjusting the switch higher. Thanks for sharing - Rick [ATTACH=full]34285[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
