I knew you would come home with that! What a lovely machine; After some restoration I bet it will be near perfect. I can look for a belt for you as they should be the same as the junior 1334 and 1346. I wonder who bought that junior you where selling? :P | ||

119
Sam
The 119 was introduced in September 1950 so you have quite an early one there. You are very lucky to have a bag in good condition - they are not known for their longevity. You really do need to empty it each time you use or, ideally, use a paper bag carefully folded around the opening of the bag (from the inside of course) to protect the cloth bag. You have a bonus in the tools with the large brush and straight wand, both of which would have come from a 402 (cylinder) Nice find Al | ||

Cheers All. The condition of the bag, handle grip and paint sold it to me, the bag is in unusually good condition, its certainly the best condition early cleaner I have. Just done a conversion, £54,11&6 was £950 in 2005! | ||

I HOPE YOU GET HER LOOKING GREAT AGAIN.
I GAVE THE HANDLE ON MINE A RESPRAY. I HAD A SPECIALIST PAINT SHOP SCAN MY CREVICE TOOL AND MADE A NEAR PERFECT SPRAY PAINT MATCH. THE BROWN PAINTS AVALIBLE IN SHOPS ARE NOT EVEN CLOSE TO THE ORIGINAL COLOUR. SPRAYED HANDLE AND JUST A FEW VERY MINOR TOUCH UPS TO THE FRONT COVER AND PRESTO!! THIS IS MINE.
