Great job! I knew it would work!
Did you put little spacers on the shaft so that the wheels don't slip and slide the entire length of the axle? As long as you disclose to the buyer that the wheels have been bodged, there's no harm in it. It's not like you can go out and find any - it might take years or decades to find the right parts. As long as it is functional, and you did so good at blending it in, I do not think the buyers will be that put off by it. I think it will get a fair amount now that it is a bit more cleaned up and less dirty as it was. |

Huskyvacs certainly had a very good idea to make it functional. And you did a great job polishing it up. It’d be very difficult for me to part with it. It’s certainly a very desirable machine, if you do decide to sell it, I’d imagine you could get some good money for it. Thank you for sharing these photos!
