I have a Lewyt Model 55 that I'd like to just give to someone. I'd like the shipping to be covered but other than that, it's free for the taking. Its not in the best of shape but I hate to throw it out. I know there are some people out there that just love restoring these old vacs. The problem with this one is the port where the host attaches to the vacuum has come off. It was riveted on originally and has simply come off the machine. It also has some rust around the hose opening and on bottom. Also, the cord is really dry and cracked. I do have the hose and the part that came unriveted so it could be put back together. Also I have a few attachments to go with it.
