Vintage 1977 Electrolux Model CB Commercial Canister Vacuum Cleaner

I found this on Craigslist for only $15. I have wanted a CB for a long time, so there was no hesitation for me to secure this one. It came with the canister itself, two power nozzles (one being original), two extender wands (though one is ruined), the hose, and an Electrolux Renaissance hard floor tool that I actually was missing from my Renaissance. As apparent in the video, the condition is pretty rough. It was stored in a damp environment for quite some time. When I got it, the extender wand was rusted onto the hose end. Sadly, during the removal process, the original extender wand was destroyed. There was not much there from the start, though. The hose was also ripped right by the connection for the power nozzle, but that was an easy fix. Aside from the fairly large list of mechanical issues, it was also filthy and quite a task to clean. It was worth it, though. I do still need to fix that squeaky wheel. One thing that I didn't know about the Electrolux CB is that they had power nozzles with special three-pronged connectors and brush rolls with three rows of bristles instead of the standard amount of two. It is noticeably more aggressive than the standard Electrolux brush roll. I do think that it would be good for commercial carpet. As apparent in the shot of the bottom of the original power nozzle, it needs a new bottom plate. Not only is it missing its little guards, it was also used so much that the ends of the brush roll destroyed the degrading rubber and put holes in the bottom plate. It has a quick fix of felt stuffed in there to prevent the brush roll from moving since that is what I had at the moment, but I would still like to get a new bottom plate in the future. I'm going to guess that the original owner bought or found that standard PN4 as a replacement, but realized that it was not compatible. It has almost no use on it.
