You know the old saying "When it rains, it pours!"? Well, it has certainly proven true for me lately!
Every time I say that I have too many d**n vacuum cleaners, four more show up! Three of them arrived via FedEx (Thread on that somewhere below) the other day from a very dear friend in Michigan (love ya to bits, Brandon!) and a fourth was given to me today by John Gregory when I went to his shop to purchase motor and brushroll parts for the Convertibles that Brandon sent.
A long time customer of John's had been cleaning out his garage, brought his old machine to the store, and left it on the doorstep. John immediately picked up the phone and called to tell me that he had a surprise for me.
The surprise turned out to be a STUNNING Constellation Model 86.........WITH THE ORIGINAL BOX, all original paperwork including the warranty card, two original filters in their envelope, and all of the original attachments.
As an added bonus, John gave me his very last Genuine Hoover filter that goes under the bag, as well as a package of North Canton Hoover Type J bags to go with it.
Also, I would be remiss if I didn't send a shoutout to John Long (GottahaveaHoove) for the name "Miss Connie Hoover"! This post was last edited 12/08/2014 at 23:58 |
