The power nozzle had a great many bumps and scrapes from use, but it cleaned up really well. |

The non powered hose looks as though it's seen little use. |

Thank you!, very good to know. I have fond memories of that neighbor's model 31,,it was the first time i had ever seen or used a Filter Queen,,and remember being facinated with all of its attachments, how they locked on, were air tight, and by how quiet the machine was.
Later, in around 1976, a different neighbor bought a new FQ at a home show, i dont know what the model number was, but it would have been whatever model was new in 1976. I remember it wasnt as quiet as the model 31 was, but still very impressive and was the copper/beige color. They didnt buy the PN or the PN hose, but i remember the machine did have the PN socket and the cord reel. These neighbors were friends of my folks, and they knew i was interested in vacuums. They had thought about adding the PN and hose to the FQ , after they got wall to wall carpet a few yrs later, but when the time came, they just bought a Hoover Convertible instead. I remember being disapointed! Never got to even see a FQ with a PN until a few yrs later,,when another neighbor moved in that had one. |

Nice Filter Queen!! Can you make and post a short video of the vacuum? I'd like to hear the motor running and the airflow at the end of the hose. Thanks |

I wish I could make the video you requested, but to be honest I wouldn't have a clue where to begin. I'm not all that computer savy. I do have a few friends that might be able to talk me through it though, so I'll go ahead and at least ask. Sorry. |
