Hoover Connie on ebay

[gottahaveahoove]

There is a vintage Hoover "Connie" on ebay right now. It's photographed with an ELECTROLUX floor nozzle. Talk about it coming with 'extras'.  Yikes!   I called Tom (Anderson, of course) right away.  He may have needed  lie down, perhaps take some medication. lolololol


 I'd love to ask, "What happened"?  Luckily, I have that appliance, with the correct attachment.


 For those who don't really know me..... I'm NOT taking this that seriously.


Just thought I'd share. I'm not posting a lot lately.

This the one?

The hose is wrong too - from a Kirby isn't it?

I have gotten many vacuums that come with attachments and addons from other vacuums, it fluffs up my parts cupboard and always love getting them. Later on when I get the vacuum those tools go to, it makes a complete set. A few years back I got a nearly mint condition Rainbow and it came with an entire box of random attachments from all kinds of brands the owner used with it.

I hear you!

I've gotten machines from ebay, with lots of attachments from 'foreign species".  In a box they go. I give them to the people who need/want them.  Yrs ago, when I hosted those "Monster Mash Bashes", I'd put them in a container, and , say. "Help yourself".  just like with the  tons of bojack bags

Yeah, every now and then a stray accessory comes in handy. I have a Royal Prince 501 handheld that came to me complete in the box, except for the upholstery brush. After rooting around in the barn for a few minutes, I came up with an identical brush that had come with a Douglas ATV shop vac that I had gotten rid of. The only difference was the Douglas brush was a dove gray instead of white. I haven't lost any sleep over that.
