Top of your wish list sweeper?

I'd like to have a Electrolux Model 1718/Label Epic 6000 SR tank in navy & light sand with all its original tools, navy & white hose, and its factory-paired Model 1693 pn. It was sold from 1992-93 and succeeded by the Model 1762/Label Epic 6500 SR with pn Model 1684, vinyl hose and electric wands .

@ Durango159 ... reply #31

A couple "carmargue blue" (navy) & "platinum gray" Hoover ranger hood Convertibles are the models U4521 (w/Type A bag) and U4523 (w/dust cup).

Beyond those, here are some other blue Convertibles listed by model, hood style, and Hoover shade terms copied kirbyvertibles' list (some later models not on his list are listed without some details):

U4005-full "stellar", U4021-squared "powder", U4027-rounded "stellar", U4085- (Bicentennial) squared "sea", U4075-squared "sea", U4099-squared "sea", U4103-full "sea", U4111-squared "denim", U4121-rounded, U4129-squared, U4163 rounded "powder", U4171-rounded, U4193-001-"brittany", U4349-squared "Jamaican", U4363-squared, U4369-full, U4373-squared, U4389-squared, U4401-squared, U4423-"Olympic", U4449-squared, U4519-squared, U4531-rounded

I don't know which ones have the 4.8A motors and am unfamiliar with any dark green Convertibles.

I had a beautiful Epic 6000 with the original woven hose and everything. I used the heck out of it. I sold it a few years ago but I wish I had kept it.

Well...

There are 3 vacuums that I really like the most. One of them I already have, one will soon be mine, but the other one I'm not sure If I could have or not and it's my Grandpa's early 80's Vacumaid P-125 Central Vacuum. If I don't get it when he passes away, that's what I'm going to be looking for. Not only just the unit but the inlets that came with these as well and this particular white hose he uses with this Vacumaid Deluxe powerhead.

For now, I'm still trying to figure out what the model is on our Sharp Twin Energy we used to have at one time. Here's the link if you're interested in viewing.

I know that

when I first started actually collecting vacuums....at least consciously....the turquoise Lux's like the G and the 1205 were plentiful and cheap on eBay. Then, it seems like the color became really popular and they dried up to a certain extent and/or are expensive to buy now.....especially the turquoise G in decent condition.

Glad I got in on the ground floor there....lol

I would love to have an early Kenmore Bug Eye or an Hoover model 700.
