This was my mothers vacuum. I am well aware she has the wrong bag in it.

Electrolux Lx

vacuumlad1650's profile picture
This is my 1952 Electrolux Lx. Most all of its current attachments were acquired later. Yes, this is a 1983 Metroploitan ReBuild. I will post pics of the Metro attachments by request. If you look closly, you see the Metro paint is peeling back to the original. Im also aware of the fact that one side pannel with the Elux name is coming off. That shook lose in the move back to my parents after collage

Electrolux Silverado

This is my 1983 Electrolux Silverado Deluxe. i aquired this from our very own Mr. Nathan Thomas for $100. The combo dust brush, crevice, and secondary wands came from my grandmothers Ambassador, and the Combo floor tool came from Toby G.

Of course,  I'm partial to the Hoover, naturally. Thanks for sharing.

I'm in total agreement, but for me,  I'm completely bias for Kirbys! Such as it is, we all have discriminating tastes, and Kirby has such a delicious flavor...yum, yum, yummy!smile
