My latest find. And first Panasonic I’ve had. It’s been well kept. Needs a good cleanup and then it willl be good as new.

Sorry can't help you on the date. Just wanted to congratulate you on yet another great find. It really does look brand new. |

Hi BriGuy,
I'm not an expert when it comes to Panasonic vacs, but I am pretty sure that this one is from the mid 1970's if not earlier. I think that colour scheme of red and beige is from the very first line-up of Panasonic vacs made in Japan for the North American market - right after Panasonic acquired the rights to the Dial-a-Matic design from Hoover. |

The first iterations of these machines were mustard yellow and I’m not sure if they were available with a power nozzle. |

Dysonman1 has one of these Panasonic uprights from the early 1970’s. It more closely resembles a Eureka Emporor than a DAM.

If this model number for your vac is MC-9420, then it came out in 1986. It was Consumer Report's top pick for canister vacuums for that year alongside the Hoover's S321 and Whirlpool's FC700.
