NIB Compact.......the gold one!

[brandon_w_t]

nice!

I have actually seen a machine that matched the nozzle. A real neat looking vacuum. Ithink it was very rare, the light greenish blue like that.

Here's

The carpet shampooer in Gold. The C-80 and C-9 came with the power nozzle standard I do believe. Check out the flowers.

Fabulous shampooer it's so compact and those look like genuine "Please Don't Eat the Daisies" daisies.

OMG I forgot the PDETD link

Wow, great stuff!!!!

Fred, thanks so much for the pictures and the expertise! And Tania! How wonderful to hear from you again! And Pete - Doris Day! Alan - not forgetting you either kid. Even Dorky Dave - Thanks! I know we've had this conversation - just recently- ahem! But the manual that came with my machine, printed in 1974 says C-8. Before I put it back in the box, maybe I should have checked the bottom of the machine. So, it's a C-9 huh?

Wow,
Rick

The C-8

According to Tania came in both green and then later gold. So Rick, yours could very well be a C-8. Not quite sure where the C-80 fits into the picture.

Fred, that C 80 is so pretty!! I think that was my favorite color that Compact ever made.

Need to clear something up here!

I wish that I could win the lottery so that I could give everyone on here a brand new in the box Compact but that hasn't happened yet!! But there is always hope. I did not give Rick the Compact, I was just the one that was in contact with the seller so I order them. Rick being the great guy that he is, said to just not worry about this but I wanted to set the record straight. Terry

 

[petek]

Oh Terry, be like this guy and don't worry

Terry

You are the best!! I understand you being compelled to do what you did, and an important ingrediant to the recipe of who you are. If you left out honesty, the end result wouldn't be Terry Lattz. Something I have always admired about you. I would have done the same thing.

Thanks Robb, that was very nice of you! Hope that you are doing great.

Robb,

Thank you...Terry is a wonderful, caring person...as far as I am concerned... I have won the lottery...just having Terry and many of you as friends is worth more than any amount of money could ever do.

Rick, you are a great guy...I love your humor....you keep this forum alive and well.

By the way, my Green Compact arrived today...my first Compact, new in the box and 30 years old...it doesn't get any better.

Now you guys are making me blush!!! It's like I always say, you aren't going to find a better group of friends anywhere than you will here. We are all so blessed. Terry
