Sometimes excessive moisture can cause rust to develop on a concrete floor. I purchased a 63 for myself, which I just love. It did have some minor rust on the rug plate which came right off with sandpaper. Chad, maybe right about the flooding some vacs were worse than others. Don't let me discourage any of you all. Jim had some really rare vacs. I would have taken some more from the pre-war era if I had more space. KL

If I lived a little closer, there would be a few machines there of interest to me. As it is I've imported a few to the UK already..but there's one or two in there I'd consider buying if shipping was a possibility..
BTW, sorry to hear that Jim has to get rid of this collection. It can't be a pleasant experience for anyone having to go through this sort of thing. Stephen |

I would really like to get the 725 and the 700 would be nice as well. The 26 is all yours! |

That brown and tan Eureka Challenger is kind of interesting. I doubt I really need it though. ~Tim |
