Mini meet
We would love to host a mini meet if anyone is interested! We have some machines that were not sure what to do with, so the possibility for trade and sale is in play! We would also like a collectors opinion on some of the vintage ones as well. If you would be interested let me or Ronnie (redgeminipa) know!

My buddy ran into a Filter Queen (he thinks) distributor around the Mount Union area who was looking to sell off his trade-ins.
There were probably 15-20 more cheaper vacs that he bought from him as well that we weren't interested in. The guy told him it was about 8 months worth that he had in storage.

Okay...
Call me old school here, but I've not seen anything posted about that old Silverado Electrolux sitting there. If you decide you can live without it and would part with it, let me know. I only have one Silverado and wouldn't mind to add another to the collection!
Great haul by the way! I love running across deals like that, though I have to say that beats anything I've found in a LONG time!!!!

Thanks! As I said, they still need checked over. Mike was having trouble getting the white Electrolux to turn on. He opened and closed the tank, and it worked, but wouldn't turn on again.
We'll post an update once we get to checking them over more.

The G3 cords always discolor with age. It's a shame, because the cords are usually in good shape, but they just look like crap.

G3 Cords
There was a rubber cleaner on the market here for Grey and light colour Interior trim of cars that often discolours that I used to use on G3 and other silicone based cords that discoloured, It worked a treat, I haven't bought it in years as most G 3's that we get in now days have a busted cord normally were it goes into the machine so we just replace with a new one. The cord from the ultimate G looks really nice on the G3's The grey ones don't

All 3 Electrolux canisters (older models) work good. I checked them out today. I think they'll clean up nice. I might get around to doing that tomorrow, then I'll be putting them up for sale.
The Silverado's power nozzle has a goofy reset button. If you push it, the head turns off. If you give it a slight turn, it comes back on and works good. I'm sure it's a cheap fix.
I'd prefer local... shipping could be a pain.
