Build quality the same on both machines? I know that the Wildcat is very flimsy, but I figured that Westinghouse might have improved slightly with the unplugged due to it being released later. |

Congrats on finding a Wildcat so fast! I wouldn't be surprised if that has been down there for a while. Eventually, I will be going back to the vacuum shop where I found about a dozen Fantoms (most of which I took). If I happen to find a dustbin for a Wildcat, I will let you know. One more question, I saw a few of your Youtube videos and you seem to look familiar to me. Did you used to have a Vacuumland account, maybe three or four years ago?

Google the vacuum cleaner exchange 1-866-234-3575. 900 s. Illinois st. Belleville IL. Tell them what you have. Tell them there is one on the top floor of the (mansion) on the North side in the corner by a window. It's the whole machine actually. Tell him one of the St Louis visitors friend of Rick sent you. He might not remember my name but you can tell him Phillip the Thermax guy sent you lol. I don'y know if they will ship but it's worth a gamble. Maybe he can bring it down and one of the colectors in the area will ship for you like maybe Alex Braun? I would but I'm about 8 hours away.

Thanks for that info! I'll give it a try later today. I did find a member who has an unplugged that they will be shipping to me, but if for some reason our deal does not go through I will keep your unplugged bin in mind! Thanks Nick |

I spent most of the day working in my storage shop and went through all my parts. I did part with those apperantly. I'm so sorry but it sounds like you have a couple of other options! I did find a Kenmore destiny version of the lighting and a destiny version of the thunder that id like to check out and see how complete they are. I'd like to sell them. I have the fantom models in my collection and that's all I need.

Thanks for checking for me!! Another member and I have reached an agreed price and all I need to do now is pay him once I get a quote on shipping. I'll update from there on about the machine |
