My Convention scores

[universaldave1]

I lucked out at the Convention this year big time. In total, I got six machines, consisting of a Deep in the Box Eureka Roto-Matic 910, complete, a Compact C4, complete, a Hoover 913 commercial, a Rainbow D3 with powerhead, a 1998 Eureka Sanitaire, and a 1970 Wards Eureka with Cordaway. The 1970 Eureka's motor took a complete dump when I got it home, though. Luckily, I had a junk Eureka two speed in the storage unit, so I swapped the motors, and it's all good. Today, I visited a local Rainbow dealership for D3 and D4 parts, and while he didn't have much older stuff, I did get some stuff for my E2 one speed. I got a tool caddy, a dolly, a dusting brush, an upholstery tool, and a power hose. The hose is missing the trigger and five screws, but I can get those from Goodvac.

Unfortunately,

The Wards bag disintegrated on the way home, so I had to replace it with the bojack bag from the parts Eureka.
