Vintage Vacuums & Restorations

[ultimatevacman]

Very nice vacuums! I'm loving the Hoover Junior's and the Senior! That's a very nice example of a Tradition too!

Good job on restoring them

Thank you Joe!

My Mother bought this new some time in the early 2000's and it has been a very trusted vacuum, also used by a number of family until I got hold of it. You just got to look after your Dyson and it will look after you!

My Little Line up

In the end...

These are both very nice vacuums, the Dyson being a bit more powerful suction wise. If they had better filters and motors the vortex could last just as long. But, they do make very very nice collection pieces especially stood next to their death!

 

[ultimatevacman]

That's brilliant! I've always liked the De stijl Dyson's

Yet more great vacuums jake

 

[Jakesvacs]

The Hoover turbopower is to be split for parts so name what you need and message me!

 

[Jakesvacs]

Anyone need these?

WOW! Loving the Dyson DC04 line up mate Well Done, you clean the vacs up better than me

 

[Jakesvacs]

Thank you very much Tayyab.
I have even more line-ups coming!

Your cleaners are great and - above all- in amazing condition, really ready for a museum expo ! The tiny senior toy cleaner is also well kept! I have a pink one but I am not able to make it work ! I really wish I had time and space to start re-polishing my vacuum cleaner collection as well...

 

[Jakesvacs]

Hey Guido, thanks for the compliments!
The toy seniors are quite simple really, I'm sure you can have it up and running soon enough.
Thanks for viewing them!

Some nice photos there.

So,eday, I MUST get a nice British "Senior".

 

[Jakesvacs]

Of course you must, John. Nothing quite like a senior!

 

[ultimatevacman]

Here's my Senior which I got a few days ago

 

[Jakesvacs]

Joe, get scrubbing! I joke.
Nice vacuums.

 

[ultimatevacman]

Haha, thanks!

 

[Jakesvacs]

Here is a clue

of my next restoration!

 

[gottahaveahoove]

Yikes!!!!

I'm sure that the finished product will be 'fab'. I've seen what you can do.
John.

 

[james]

oh, I wonder what that is
Good luck with the restoration, looks like it needs a bit of work!

 

[Jakesvacs]

Well thank you John! Some parts are already polished and cleaned but as you can see I have that main unit to restore. Since that picture was taken it has gotten much worse so I have a big job ahead of me. It might go to my friend who is a Kirby service dealer *James* to just sort out some motor bearing issues then back to me for the rest.

James: Lets hope you are able to even break the motor apart. Any spiders in there are mine so hands off!
