That's a BEAUTIFUL restoration! I would say it qualifies for "hall of fame" status. Congratulations, and use it in good health! |

WOW,,beautiful job! Looks really sharp,,like it jumped right out of 1975!
This is the EXACT machine my Grandmother bought in April or May of 1976. Only difference i can tell is that the PN plug on the PN was skinnier, but that is the exact machine, hose and PN,,with the 50th Jubilee stickers and all. Jeesh, that machine brings back fond memories,,i was just a kid then, and dreamed of owning this machine. Then when my Grandma actually bought one,unbenounced to me, didnt know she was thinking of buying one,,,i couldnt WAIT to get to Grandma's that summer to see and use the new Electrolux! Was one of the biggest thrills of my childhood! ( vacuum crazy kid) My Grandparents were not rich, and a machine of this type was considered a definate luxury to them. I want to say it was around 450.00 new. She did not buy the rug shampooer with it. This lux was one of her prized posessions,,she was proud of that Electrolux. Yes, when we were cleaning out her house after she passed,,i took the Lux. Still have it,,always will. |

Very, very nice job. I have one, but yours puts mine to shame. They're great machines, too: quiet, good performers, albeit a little heavy and on the gaudy side, but still quite good. |

That is one BEAUTIFUL Lux Super J you have there!! You did a wonderful job on bringing the old girl back to life. Now, don't take this the wrong way....only thing you forgot to do, is take some paint & repaint the Electrolux logo on the bumpers, but that's a minor thing.
If you could do me a favor, & post this on my group, please....I know Logan Hall & Jim Kalin will be drooling when they see it! Rob |
