From the mini meet on saturday here in dfw. it was a freebie too! more about the mini meet in the off topic section. This model 86 was quite dirty when i got it. It was rusty on attachment ends, and had a dent on the top. the paint scratches i didn't mind. it runs like new, upon further investigation, it had been serviced twice, and there's what appears to be a brand new motor inside! i cleaned up the canister and attachments with various products (simple green, mothers, sandpaper, and some steel wool and car wax too). i also pounded the dent mostly out with the ball end of a ballpeen hammer. it's much less noticeable now
it runs great and has a ton more suction than i thought it would! Will |

How big are they in real life. They always look big in pictures. Is there a machine you could compare it too? Daniel :) |
