Hey y'all! Stumbled across this tool set while cleaning out the closet, any of you need or want them? Not sure what they're worth, maybe big dollars? They're in fantastic shape too 😆
Let me know! Shipping shouldn't be bad... Pics to follow

So I misspoke

It appears as though the hose is pretty stiff, and the dusting brush is pretty worn out. I believe there may be a wand missing but I'm not 100 percent certain. At this point it may only be a collector's item 😂

You are actually missing two wands, one straight, one curved, the floor brush, and the blowing connector for the hose. A better picture would be appreciated, showing both ends of the hose and with the tools spread out so we can get a better look at them.

The shipping label on the box is unique, as most vacuum sales then were door to door. But if the hose is stiff curled up like that, just leave it alone. This would be good as parts to complete someone's missing tool kit and that's about all.

You can recoat the hose lining with new rubber if someone were to intentionally straighten it out and break all the old rubber lining and recoat with a new liner, but it's a pretty involved process to do and makes a big mess.

Very fair

As I said I didn't know enough about the set, I'll hang onto it for now 😄 I've never been brave enough to try to re seal hoses and this one is ancient, so I won't risk it. Thank you guys for the info!
