Would anyone happen to have a 1970s or 80s, or know someone who is selling, a Eureka ESP? No color-scheme preference. I would really love to have one of these in my collection. Thanks, guys!

Have you giving eBay a try?

A 80's Eureka is a fantastic vacuum, and the old ones aren't too bad either!

I might have what you're looking for ...

Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures readily available to show you right now! I'll try and put some up on Tuesday.

Anyway, what I have is a Eureka ESP upright in green, model 2090A, made sometime around 1981 or 1982. It's in good running condition but does have some scratches and other signs of use on it.

I've attached a link to a video of it, if you'd like to see it in action. Let me know if you're interested.

OK!  I came home sick from work today, but if I'm feeling better later on I'll go over to the storage yard, take some pix, and send them off to you.

Eureka Uprights

I love old Eureka uprights. The ESPs were great cleaning machines, and very well built. Actually, I had an old one from the late 1950s as well. Built like a tank, and deep cleaned carpets beautifully. I miss it. Good luck in finding yours!

I want to let you know ...

... that I haven't forgotten about you!  I have been abnormally busy this week and haven't been able to get to my storage shed.  It is on my schedule for tomorrow, however, so please watch your mailbox!  Thanks so much for your patience ... I hope it'll be worth the wait for you.
