Hi- Last saturday I came into possesion of this '80s Eureka B.O.L 4.0 Amp upright for a mere $10, And it is AWESOME.

Being who I am, I put a vintage brand new 1985 Eureka F&G bag in, and set about for the living room.

Yes, The thing is NASTY on the underside, But I just couldn't resist the temptation to run this thing!

Well, I have no idea how I just did THAT^, But I do know I have to be VERY careful when running this machine, I've already jammed it 3 times. twice on a piece of an Acorn, the Third on a LEGO. I unzipped the bag, and was shocked at how full the bag was with dirt!

Then again, I haven't Been Running my HOOVER lately...;)

 

Well, I've fallen in love with this silent beauty, And will give a much-needed Spa Treatment soon, Likely within the Week.

 

Here's some cool before pictures:

Not to bad

The plate on the bottom looks like its rusty but still it is a nice little machine should look great after the spa treatment.

I tested and ran it out in the garage, ONLY AFTER the Spa-Treatment are vacuums allowed in the House!
