Original Hoover Constellation Model 86

OK, I finally got back to the barn where the old Constellation was stored. It's missing thehose and power cord. When I picked it up, it rattled. So I opened it and inside was the motor, in many pieces. In other words, a gutted Constellation.

The color is more tan than yellow. And it is indeed an 86. And not pretty ;-)

i always thought of it as a light caramel color.
