hello,
I have a question about the Airway tank from the 70's. It's the white and teal one. This one didn't have the power head port on the side like all the others I have seen with the Rugmaster, however in the back of this vacuum around the bottom, there was a brown plug next to where the cord comes out for the power head. I have never seen this before. Could it be that this model didn't come with a powerhead and a vac shop added it later? The hose was a replacment without the cord wrapped around it but it did have the rubber straps that would have held the cord. Any info on this would be nice.

Air Way Power Heard

A lot of the early "Air-Ways" had a power nozzle outlet added later to accomodate a power head. I just found an early 88 model that was converted over to the power head, so it was done on alot of them later.

Aww,
thanks Tania for the info. I kind of wondered if that wasn't the case.
