Yes it is higher in price(these all seem to be) and the plating is gone. With some brasso and a buffing wheel, I could see this becoming a very unique looking vac, being all brass.

I have the sweeper vac version, it has wear spots where the chrome is coming off to reveal a surface like the above. Seems its only on the motor with mine, the rest is polished aluminum. Even with plating it has a yellow-ish tint to it compared to the rest. Brass or adoninized aluminum, either way I get the feeling it will look pretty slick polished up.
