And a scurvy lot it was. Here they are, fresh off that boat, untouched, dirty, broken. In this lot is a Amway Clear Trak (Bissell), dirty but intact with a good blue hose. These are well-built machines but rather clunky and not much given over to consumer appeal from the standpoint of aesthetics. Fairly narrow brush roll. You can buy a brand new one from Overstock.com for $440. Plus shipping, I'm sure.
There are two Fantom Furys in this lot, note the differences in the floor nozzle. The dirtier one says "special edition" on it. These two machines will be combined into one. The cleaner one has some broken parts that are good on the dirtier one.
The greater Hoover Windtunnel SP is obviously incomplete but is in remarkably good, little used condition. It will do as a donor for refurbing similar models. Like-new brush roll.
The lesser Hoover Windtunnel is dirty but mostly complete and can be refurbed.
The Hoover Celebrity was missing hose, wand, power nozzle, attachments, even the attachment caddy that goes on the back. However, the basic canister itself is in very nice, clean, mostly unscratched condition. This is a later version, the QS with four casters rather than three.
The Kenmore Whispertone canister was missing the power nozzle, but came with a good hose (no actual or incipient cracks). This will be refurbed and matched up with a loose nozzle. Three of four attachments reposed under the lid of the storage compartment.
That object on the far right hand side of the tail gate isn't a vac; it's a Craftsman band saw that I couldn't pass up.
