My next big project ! Wish me luck these are in pretty bad shape although the bag on the none-electric Vacuette is in good condition . What you see here is a model C from 1934-1935 ish and “The new Vac-u-ette ” ( none electric) from 1925

Very cool!
David,
I have no doubt they will both look better than new when your done. Take lots of pictures as you go. I would love to know the serial number of your model C, as it appears to be set up the same as mine. Pictured is my ID tag serial number 124242 Jim

Ben,
Thank you! Jim, Of course! I will make sure to post images here next week when I am done with the restoration . I will include an image of the ID plate. and finally Kevin, There were a few different Vacuette (none electric models) here are the main ones : -1919 Model B -1921-1925 Model C and improved Model C -1925-1930 "The New Vac-u-ette" and "The wireless Vac-u-ette) there were at least 6 different bag designs. As for "The Vacuette Electric" . these were the 2 main models: Model E.L : Door to Door model with the foot toggle switch and a wide array of attachments. Model (E.L) J. : Retail model with the switch on the handle and limited optional attachments sold seperatly. I can go more in detail later of the differences between each model .. I hope i was able to answer your questions. Thanks David This post was last edited 08/29/2023 at 18:08 | ||

These two will look fantastic when completed. They already look pretty good for vacuums being 89ish and 98 yrs.old! Better than a lot of what we see pulled out of attics,basements and barns. Can't wait to see them at the finish line! Billy | ||

Model C restored !
Finally !
This one was a long time in the making , I originally purchased this unit with a wireless Vacuette. It was in a pretty bad shape and I had to hunt for parts to get this back together to it’s original state ! Here she is , Model C with the rare brass belt cover and H/L . Circa 1934/1935.
