Likewise. I may have seen a few posts on this forum about it, but this is my first time seeing one. I think the old boy will look pretty good once shined up. |

yep this machine was the bottom of the line machine as it did not feature the cord winder, Suction Dial, and rocker switch. still a very good quality machine though. |

Wish i had some pics of it,but i had a gray (Silverado) BOL identical to the one pictured except that mine had a heavy plastic square shaped donut on the back to wind the cord on.
The donut is Shaped the same as the rear end of a Golden J, Olympia, Silverado, ect. I can see where the added cord winder would make the Lux harder to use. Gave this machine to my folks to use in their winter home in South Tex. Dad does all the vacuuming,,says he likes it because its lighter weight than a regular Lux,great for cleaning out the car, and loves the blower feature,(lots of sand/beaches where they live) and, still has the power of a regular Lux. I had a former Lux salesman tell me once that they didnt like to and normally didnt demo this model too often because they were alot cheaper than a regular Lux. They would only show this model if the customer absolutely refused to consider buying an Electrolux,, they would try to sell one of these as a last resort. These really are excellent vacs,,a basic Electrolux and MUCH lighter weight than its counterpart. I was always amazed at how light that little Silverado was compared to a regular Silverado. |

BTW Compactelectra,,i LOVE that pic of your Model L,,Polisher (were they called a B8?) and 1205. They are beautiful.
An older neighbor lady bought a brand new 1205 in 1974 when i was a kid. I was in total AWE. The salesman put it together for her,,or at least just sold her the one he was showing her. I got there just after he left. I got to use it for a little while,,but not too long,,she didnt want any dumb kid to ruin her new Electrolux! I dreamed of that machine for yrs afterward,(my parents would NEVER have bought anything like that,all we had was a dumb old Hoover connie that i HATED!),that 1205 was just so beautiful brand new. Reminds me of yours! A yr or 2 later my Grandma bought a brand new Golden J,,so all hope was not lost. haha |

Not sure about the U.S., but the 2100 in Canada was the TOL machine, and the LE the basic. |
