Hello all! It has been quite a bit.

No longer in omaha nebraska. I live with my partner in Las Vegas Nevada. Been here about a year now. 

When I moved, I downsized everything and didn't bring anything except my bare essentials. 

We live here now with a decently large car collection and I have a few musical instruments and projects going on (big one currently converting a conn 652 to a midi instrument)

I was contacted by a fellow collector who received notice that a Vegas local was moving and had to depart with all of their vacuum cleaners. I hadn't been in the collecting game for a while and said hey why not!

If only I had carpet haha. 

So the machines are as follows... 

Hoover 29

2 Hoover 63s and matching constellation

Hoover convertible 66

Electrolux model 30

Electrolux  model 60

Also got a wonderful sunbeam mixer and automatic toaster and some other goodies. 

Lots of spare parts. 29 and 63 hoods. An entire 66 minus bag and handle. Hoses and attachments. Bags etc. 

Just got them inside. All work well

Only thing I'll need is a motor for the model 60. It's missing. And constellation attachments

Going to really get them cleaned up some time 

Thanks! The heat sure is brutal. 115 here at 7pm.

Car collection isn't the most exciting thing ever but we've got a few haha. 

Oldest to newest 

1973 ford f100

1974 bmw 2002

1986 Mercedes 560SL

1993 jeep wrangler with a Chevy v8

1995 bmw 525i wagon

2004 Durango big hemi build

2006 Subaru wrx rally build

2008 mercedes SL550 (my daily driver)

2010 Chevy Tahoe Z71 (mates daily driver) 

I've got a small patch of grass in the front yard for part of it and the rest is all rock. Have to water 20 minutes a day 6 days a week to keep it green.

The cars may sound nice but most are hoopties haha. Lots were free or extremely cheap due to abandonment. 

The Subaru is fun. We take it to the desert sometimes. 

The f100 is a strong workhorse. We drove it from its former home in Salt Lake City to Vegas. 8mpg haha

It's certainly seen better days though. The slc rust got to it. Interior is like new and engine and drive train have been refreshed 

This convertible is just amazing 

Thanks! The hoover 29 really does pop.

I had to snag the mixer. The gentleman had many other non vacuum things he had to get rid of and told me to take what I wanted.

I didn't have a mixer and been talking about buying one but didn't want to splurge on a kitchenaid so this worked out fantastic

Also the sunbeam toaster.... Oh I've always dreamed of an automatic toaster. They are so fascinating. Will just need to install a grounded plug and it's good to go. 

For Subarus. Have had a few. They are great basic cars. The wrx is a lot of fun. The turbo models aren't quite as robust as naturally aspirated. But they can take a beating. This one's got a good ammount of performance upgrades as well as suspension. It's lifted and bigger tires too for off roading fun. 

It gets decent gas mileage when they aren't lifted and modified to heck haha. This one doesn't get driven much due to its extremly loud exhaust and rough tires

Here it is next to a professional race car at Sema auto show a few years ago
