picked up this vac with matching PN6 power nozzle. (Not really a classic but it is over 25 years old)
My 1st plastic canister Electrolux also.
It must have been used as a shop vac. ( I could hear grit rolling around when I picked it up.)
It turned off after a few minutes.I found powder and dirt in the motor. After a complete dis-assembly of the motor, it runs well.
Not as strong as my Super J, but still a robust motor.

At least I know how to take one of these plastic canisters apart.
I took lots of pics.

PN6 Power nozzle is next, belt was missing a few teeth, and it is not as clean as my PN6A. A little on the rough side.

That poor motor looked horrible, at least it cleaned up good and didn't seem to be too badly damaged. A lot of times the old house vacuums people end up using as garage and car vacuums until the motor dies.

I have a pink LE which I use as my daily driver. I know LE stood for "low end" compared to the more deluxe 2100. I wonder if the gray and pink models were offered at the same time?
