I went to see my good friend Ken Hedrick in Atlanta today to go vac hunting & work on a few we already own and came home with all these. We didn't have much luck in the thrift shops today but he has the past few weeks and I picked these out of the ones he already had, he does have a few more nice ones for sale as well. Anyway, there are 2 Convertibles models 36 & 66, a blue stick vac, a Dial-A-Matic w/ hose, and a fairly new Soft & Light. They are all in great condition, some just need to be cleaned up a bit and I will post more pics as I do that. I also left with a bunch of bags (all types), and a set of attachments for my '70s Eureka upright w/ the gold damask bag. We also got out the buffing wheel & the Mother's Polish to clean up some my Kirby Tradition & 516. The 516 is almost done but Tradition is going to take some work. So yeah, I'd say this was a pretty decent hall for today lol.

Retro hoovers Here is my Numatic NV250 in pretty bad condition. I believe this one is from 1977, but I cannot confirm that as there is no serial number present.

Austin,
We came across the same vacuum at almost the same time. I'd like to come across some more Convertibles again, but I don't see them very often. The ones on ebay are overprices and screwed up. B. CLICK HERE TO GO TO beekeyknee's LINK | ||
