Yes, I know this has been done before, but it"s been a while. If you don"t mind, would you show me pics of any vacuums you have featuring Wind tunnel technology? I will show mine tomorrow afternoon, when there is better light.
 
I have one vac with windtunnel tech I've had like 4 others but they were newer t Sieries that I did not like at all so :/ I'll try and find pics of my old winstunnels that I had .

WindTunnels!

I have 5 WindTunnel branded machines, as well as an early Savvy, which i'm including because it, in reality, is a WindTunnel Dual V. The first is my blue Anniversary WindTunnel Bagged. I found this at the DI for $15.00, and, besides the scratches, it is in nearly new condition. It has every attachment, and when I got it it only needed a new belt, and a light wipe-down. I like using it, but the suction is too strong sometimes. The second one is my Anniversary WindTunnel Bagless. I got this for Christmas a few years ago, and I really like this one also. It has all the attachments besides one wand, and It performs very well, like all WindTunnel's do. The Twin Chamber System can be a bit messy at times, bu it's only a minor inconvenience. The third is my Self Propelled WindTunnel Ultra. This needed a lot of work when I got it, but after a new brush, bottom plate. edge groomers, and some hot glue/cardboard, it runs extremely well. The Self-Propelled is very nice, and the suction is incredible. The fourth one is my project WindTunnel Bagless from 2007, and I need to finish rebuilding it, as it is very dirty. It'll be a fun machine when it's finished, though! The fifth and sixth ones are my Platinum Bagged, and Savvy Bagged and Bagless. The Platinum has an electrical problem, but I honestly don't really want to spend $100.00 on a new handle. The Savvy came from a lady in Clinton, UT who was selling it on KSL Classifieds. It really didn't need much, everything was in pretty good shape besides being dusty. It did need a dirt container lid, and I have both wand clips, bu can't find out how to put them on . The Savvy has great cleaning power with the Two (some say four) brushrolls, and although the switch is funny at times it is a good vacuum.

The canister ones I currently own!

The bagless unit is a refurbed one that I did sell, it is S3765-040. However I have another identical one in the house presently that needs to be serviced.

The green canister is the first Windtunnel canister. It is S3630.

The blue Windtunnel Supreme upright was refurbed and sold.

The blue Windtunnel Plus S3639 canister now belongs to my parents.

I have a Vax version which is the same as Hoover Lift Windtunnel, the new cordless one, it is a really good machine for a cordless, a bit lacking with suction on the hose though.
 
Here is my one and only..

Hoover WindTunnel Self-Propelled, which I've had for 11-12 years, and my daily workhorse. Very well cared for too. I also had a blue WindTunnel of around the same time period, but not anymore.

Those tornado graphics

So fascinating that Hoover saw the impending cyclonic filtration revolution, and didn't want to be left out. Ain't nothing cyclonic about an original Windtunnel, superior carpet cleaners that they are.

Tornado Graphics

The new WindTunnel graphics are sooo plain...they should bring back the tornado. One year when I was like one or two, I was a Hoover WindTunnel for Halloween, my mom did such a great job with the costume! I still have part of it, and ill NEVER get rid of it. :)
