Vintage Cadillac Vacuum

[JDrums0789]

Found this on the local Craigslist. I've never seen a Cadillac like this.
Pretty neat looking if I do say so myself...

<span style="font-family: tahoma,arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">Yeah, and the cool thing about this is that the wartime price-fix tag is still attached. To control commerce, the government restricted what could be charged for items. There was limited supply and LOTS of demand, especially after the War. </span>

<span style="font-family: tahoma,arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">I bet with a little love, this vacuum could be made purty again. Might be worth the effort, depending on what the motor condition is like.</span>

Nice looking machine...

I can honestly say I've never had the opportunity to actually see a Cadillac vacuum in person, only in photos. I would say from the looks of the machine, with a little tlc that would be an awesome vacuum! Great find!
