That's very minty! Wow, that's some find! It looks new, and will clean up to be as good as new. No idea on the screws I'm afraid, but it's always nice finding missing fixings rattling around isn't it?! | ||

the rear filter
yes someone has already cobbled together a replacement i will make a new one as you suggested nice for you to have one still in its box .When i was a boy practically all my relatives and a lot of our neighbours had Electrolux Zs of one model or another and most put them back in the box after use my Grandma had a 62 she only ever used it with the upholstery nozzel on the end of the two wands the other tools never got used she was still using it right up to her death in the early nineties its mine now when my parents were clearing her house they found it under the stairs in its box with its tools spray gun and instruction manual the tools were as new but the upholstery nozzel had rounded off corners after all those years of use

Plastic screws I am fairly sure the plastic screws go into 2 of the 4 points on the rear of motor. Each point has a spring, two have rubber mouldings, and two have plastic screws, I think. | ||

the radiator brush
hello Dysondestijl [god thats not easy to spel]dont wory about the postage it wont be much just need your address. I think your right Vintagerepairman there is no where else they could go there are two rubber stops on two of the springs and two holes in the centre of the other springs.i have stripped the motor today and cleaned all the carbon deposits out i love doing this kind of thing when i repaired vacs for a living i never had time to do such a thorough job on them it was just a case of getting them working and back to the customers but now i can take my time.I am glad i decided to do this as i said earlier every screw had worked loose on this machine and although the motor ran fine the bearings were dry so i have cleaned the bearings and stuffed them full of loverly fresh grease i am a great believer in lubricating anything that moves . the fans and fan chamber have been washed to remove all the dust that has managed to get throught the bag over the years i also opend up the floor nozzel it was full of fluff and dirt thats been lubricated as well before i put it back together anyway guys theres a fiew more photos coming

Screws It looks to me like the plastic screws have sheared off. For a cleaner in such good condition, it is a mystery as to why the screws were all loose. | ||
