Second

Air-Way 55A. No hose or attachments, but I local vacuum repair shop might have a used hose for me.

Third

Hoover Decade 80. I will have to get a new vinyl bag or figure out how to put a new zipper on this one. The zipper would move up or down, I tried spraying in the with WD40 no luck. So I had to cut around the zipper with scissors.

I'm not a huge fan of green, but I really like this color of green.

you can buy a zipper. If you can't sew it on, take it to a shoemaker. I did. It was simple. Saved the bag.

OMG, even thought you just bought that decade 80, would you be willing to sell it?
That is one of my dream machines yet to be had.

Let me think about it Kirbfan. I don't much carpeting, but I keep getting uprights.
