I went to see my good friend Ken Hedrick in Atlanta today to go vac hunting & work on a few we already own and came home with all these. We didn't have much luck in the thrift shops today but he has the past few weeks and I picked these out of the ones he already had, he does have a few more nice ones for sale as well. Anyway, there are 2 Convertibles models 36 & 66, a blue stick vac, a Dial-A-Matic w/ hose, and a fairly new Soft & Light. They are all in great condition, some just need to be cleaned up a bit and I will post more pics as I do that. I also left with a bunch of bags (all types), and a set of attachments for my '70s Eureka upright w/ the gold damask bag. We also got out the buffing wheel & the Mother's Polish to clean up some my Kirby Tradition & 516. The 516 is almost done but Tradition is going to take some work. So yeah, I'd say this was a pretty decent hall for today lol.

Those hoovers are great. I love the 66. Haven't seen any of those around my parts. Something about that green...
 
This one was the dirtiest so I cleaned it up first. It just needed a wipedown, new bag & belt, & to be cleaned out. It runs like new too. It turned out very nice.

The model 66 turned out great as well. The bag is in good shape but the hood is slightly warped. This one was very clean too. If anyone out there has this same hood lens, I would be very interested in buying or trading something for it.
