My uncle called me today and told me that he found this lovely Royal Commercial upright in the garbage for me! He was driving through a subdivision and saw the words Royal on a vacuum and knew that he HAD to get it. I am VERY glad that he did! I am not sure if the motor sounds right or not. It does need a belt though. The owners even used Genuine Royal bags in it! So that shows that they cared for it. This is a picture of it at my aunt and uncle's house when I first got it. I'll post more pictures of it when I get it all cleaned up!

Here it is all clean! It was surprisingly very easy to polish up! The bag could be washed, but I am scared to do it as I don't want to ruin it. So it is fine the way it is.
Sorry for the picture quality. I got the HTC Thunderbolt and it takes great photos on the phone, but when they are put on the computer, the quality just goes down the drain! |
