Is this Electrolux too far gone to Save?

The Ambassador.

One last picture.
I am not a big fan of cannister vacs. I find they are hard on my back. This vacuum has a really long wand, it is taller than the handle of the Kirby. I found it really easy to use. I would think a short person would find it uncomfortable.

Looks pretty good all cleaned up like that. I have a Diplomat from around the same time frame (in fact, it must be part of the same series). The only difference is the "control panel" and bag control dial on the top. The L-shaped power nozzles are good, albeit a bit noisy.

I do have the original white/blue woven hose but its only in slightly better condition than yours.

Absolutely beautiful Ambassador now, Brian. Congratulations! We WILL find you a good blue hose and a new lower shell casing in time.

I think I might have a hose to the ambassador that I had if you want I could give it to you for the price of shipping. the hose is in good shape the only thing wrong with it is the handle of the hose. last time I used it it was cracked.
