WTB Lower amperage eureka upright for project.

[blackheart]

I'm looking for a 3 or 3.5 amp model eureka upright. I've seen a few on ebay but it's like i'm looking to potentially permanent mod this so i'd rather not take a collectable off the market for this. Anyways just needs to run, and have a height adjustment, it can be ugly.
Let me know what you've got and how much you'd like for it. TIA

I have a

3.5 amp motor out of an old Sanitaire if that's of any use to you?

Motor

Hey Jake, unfortunately I don't have a machine i'd sacrifice at the moment for that. Is it a blender or pancake style motor though? I'll keep my eyes open for a compatible model on my thrift runs.

It is the

Pancake style commercial one. Runs excellent! I ended up putting a 7 amp into that Sanitaire and saved the original for a rainy day

Found one!

for 2.50 no less lol. I'm planning to change the base out so i can use the more modern hex ended brushroll since i've got a spare VG2 laying around. and replace the metal fan since some of the fins seem a little bent.
