This will probably be the final update as of now. I will update again in another few months.

So, I replaced The Boss with that very rare Vintage Eureka Commercial Vacuum. Again, I do love it. It has an unusual motor sound. Like I said, I will make a really excellent video once I replace the brush and the springs. The vacuum shop is going to replace the springs for me. They are rusted and need replacement. They have the exact same green color. So it will still look original.

As you notice, I have space for only ONE more upright vacuum. I was wanting to buy 2 more, but I saw in my closet I have space for 1 last one to complete my collection. As of now, I don't have any money for any machine whatsoever. I will probably complete my collection next summer, because I have no money to buy anymore vacuums of any kind. I need to use that money to buy a new brush and new springs, and also to do a full restore on the Hoover Convertible.

Most likely, the final machine to add to my collection will be a Eureka Wards. I do not want the same style Eureka as the commercial one I have. I would want a Wards with a headlight and a different style top and maybe a cord wheel. But this won't happen anytime soon, for another several months to a year. It make take another few years to find one like that, but I want that kind of Wards. I was wanting any kind, but I changed my mind.

I will post pictures and a video of my parent's Sanitaire SC887 they have. It has a dust cup. I might also compare that with my Vintage Commercial Vacuum and see which one picks up better in a video.

And that is it for this update.
