It was great Chad, I had to wait until Saturday morning to use it because I was so tired when I got home I didn't leave Tom's until almost 10:30 and then I went with Ed to Morrison's Sweeper to pick up a J.C.Penney Self Propelled Concept it was serial number 1001.I didn't get home until 1:30 that night. I use the Dual 80 almost every day and still have not used the new J.C.Penney I want to keep it brand new and unused. You know how much I love the J.C.Penney line that it has been very hard to not use it.

Sunbeam floating brush upright!!!

Chad,
I love that machine. Reminds me of the later Singer Uprights. I never have seen one or used one but for some reason I was always drawn to them. Do they have the twin-fans like the Singers?

Sam- Glad to hear that you go the Penney's Concept One. Isn't Ed great. He knows what he's got, and is fair priced, that's why I will boost that store when I can. Woot,woot to Morrison's in Canton Ohio!!!! LOL I know we were comparing the green monsters as we talked in the streetat Tom's, and I really hope that the Kirby ends up doing you well.

David- Yes it did clean up. I'm so thankful you allowed me to have it. Now I have almost every badged version of Twin-Fan that Singer made. I need a Lewyt version, but I'd have better luck being stuck by lightening. I took a few hours that Monday at work, and polished and cleaned both the surface, and under the hood. Unfortunatly Singer had the sideways fan design that sucked dirty air from the vents underneath the machine, to cool the motor. Why was this unfortunate? The unfortunate, is that this design picked up wayward fuzzies,lint and dust, and deposited it in the motor cavity under the hood. Not keeping that motor area clean cooked MANY a Singer motor.... Learned that from a master collector. ObeJeffKenobe..

Rob- It does have the Twin-Fan System like all Singers had. The only really big (bad) thing about the Twin-Fan system was that they could, and did clog in the dirt path exhaust between the fan area, to the bag just a few inches away. I've pulled apart many a Singer or Kenmore with this malady, not to mention the cooling issue I described above. This design totally was remixed with very few differences for the later Kenmore 2 speed upright that was introduced around 1975-76? as thier TOL or Commercial version that had a wraparound headlight. In fact This hood design, slightly modified, served Kenmore until it stopped selling the Singer badged machines around 1992-93 area....or whenever they dropped them for good. Those years sound right ot me tho...


Thanks all for the great Coments, but again a special thanks again To David for allowing me to have it...

Chad
