Nah, the Dyane6 weighs more than a 2CV (bigger panels to make it look more modern), so, it'd be more like the weight of a 2CV6... :P | ||

The MC Allister reminds me of the fairfax design. The shape of the body looks similar. ;) | ||

It Is.. Very similar, but I tried putting a Fairfax power plant on the Mc Allister Hydro Vac shell, and it is slightly larger, must be some family history. | ||

Speaking of McAllister/Fairfax here's a fetching green beauty that appeared on eBay in September 2008. I am sad to say that my bid was NOT the winning one. :-(
Con-Vac Model R-1 made by the Conlon-Moore Corporation in Chicago. Sure, the tools are all newer replacements but with the J-wands and proper hose connections this would have been a rare beast to set beside the McAllister and Fairfaxes...Fairfaxi?
