vacuums I want

My list is actually pretty short, since I'm not a fan of uprights, that removes quite a bit. I want a vacuum that uses a particular Ametek motor that was very common in the 1950's and 1960's and I think even in to the 1970's, and thanks to Tom, I will soon have one, will hopefully be getting a Compact C6, this motor was also used in several other brands such as Eureka, Lewyt, Airway, and several others. I love the sound of that motor, very pleasant compared to all the screaming jet low quality motors we have today. Actually, the Electrolux 1205 motor sounds similar to this Ametek motor, same tone and same pitch. I'd love to find some power teams from the 1970's, I think Eureka made a top of the line power team in the canned ham form factor at that time, and maybe a Kenmore power team from that time period, weren't they called magic cord's? So, those are the vacuums I would love to find, oh, and an Airway Sanitizor would be a great vacuum to have too.

I'm looking for some tools and a power nozzle for two celebrities I recently purchased off eBay.

Hoover Celebrity II S3061 Elite Power Nozzle and white attachments
Hoover Celebrity S3001? Floor nozzle and white attachments

I'd love to buy a Hoover Powermax U3745 (babysitter had one and I was fascinated by it)

and the long shot of all long shots...

Hoover Innovation U5049 - I saw one in the corner of our local vac shop 20 years ago and should've bought it! Shop owner talked me out of it saying it was "British and a pain in the ass to work on" so I left it. I regret it, daily.

I've included some google images of the vacuums I mentioned.
