Hi!
I'm curious: does anyone else here like vintage vacuums with various replacement parts? (I know the classic American cars in Cuba are considered works of art). I kind of like it when a 1959 vacuum has a 1970s or 1990s bag, a new brush roller, and maybe alternate trim pieces?
For instance, my Eureka 260 has a Sanitaire bag, a new cord, and a replacement hose port cover is on its way. (when I bought it, it was missing the cover, so I taped an index card to it).
I like non-original vacuums because it's easier to tell their history. (It also makes me feel less weird about replacing bits, lol)
