I'm not familiar with the vac, but the first place I would try is the Eureka website. They will want the model number and from that you can find whatever parts they still may have available.

If Eureka doesn't have a parts diagram for your vac, try the Hesco website, look down the left side of their home page and find the menu option for "Schematics". Click on that and a page loads with links to major brands of vacuums and a couple I had never heard of like Douglas. Open the page for Eureka/Sanitaire and look for the diagram for your model vacuum. Open the schematic and you will see a listing of parts and their part numbers.

If you strike out with Eureka, use the part numbers you found on the Hesco website and try Appliance Parts Factory, Total Vacuum, Sweetsweep, Sweeper-City or just type the part number into your browser and see what turns up. This is how I find stuff. I surprise myself all the time this way.

If your World Vac is a model 6865, which I think it is, this is the parts diagram for it (it covers a range of models).

Tell us if this is the vacuum and what parts you are looking for.

The Desert Tortoise is a resourceful beast able to find sustenance in a harsh world of scarcity, heh, heh, heh.

I don't think Eureka is good with having any parts, for some reason this is in my head anyway

Stalk eBay, you might also try Searsparts center on their website. The 6865B Eureka World Vac units don't come up too frequently but every once in a while they do.

The Hesco site will give you the manufacturers part numbers. Sometimes I just type the make of the vacuum and part number in my browser and see what turns up. I have found a few valuable old parts that way.
