My dad and I were driving around when I saw a familiar handle on someones front porch. I got out of the car and ran to the porch to find a Eureka 2 Speed ESP upright. I knocked and the door to make sure they were getting rid of it. I was greeted by a VERY nice younger lady. I asked about it and she said I could surely have it, and I offered her 5 dollars for it because it was originally in a yard sale she had, but she refused to take it! So I completely lucked out! It even came with an extra bag and a belt! It runs absolutely flawlessly, and just needed a light cleaning and a new belt! There are no nicks or rips in the cord either! There is a bit of paint loss in a few places on the base and handle, but nothing major. There is also no rips in the bag, or stains! Both speeds work as well!
I have a Eureka in the same color, one speed, step on circle switch, small headlight with the "rounded" older looking hood, and just a green vinyl bag in with Eureka printed on it. I'm unsure of the model number, but I'm pretty sure that this belongs with that line. -Chase |
