It's got a white hood and the bag holder has been replaced. They claim it's in very good condition but it has these problems and it's rusty on the bottom.
I might be interested but not at that price with those problems. Do you guys agree? CLICK HERE TO GO TO beekeyknee's LINK on eBay |

That seller seems to have notoriously high prices for vintage vacs. Obviously not a collector the seller probably doesn’t even know that the hood is a replacement. If I ever decided decide to sell one of my 69s (which is in better shape) I would never ask eighty five dollars for it. It’s not worth it.

Let that vac go. $85 plus shipping is not worth it for that vac. That description is the same description that seller writes for all his convertibles. |

Thanks for pointing that out John! I didn’t even the notice the bag. I can see where they would replace the diving board bag holder with a spring. I’m sure most of you already know that it was a weak point in Convertibles that had the diving board handle. The cord looks like it is a replacement as well.

I know this is a discussion about model 69's but if anyones interested I have a model 31 that's all original that I could let go of. |
