Default Corvette Hand Vacuum

Hey everyone. Today I went to the salvation army looking for a cheap table and came across a Eureka Corvette Handvac and brought it home for $5. The box has pictures of a C4 on it and the vacuum itself is red with a clear canister and has the Corvette name on it along with the C4 badge. It also comes with attachments designed to make cleaning the vents easier and a few other attachments. Does anyone else have one of these? I had never seen this before. I thought it was kind of a neat piece to collect.

I picked this one up at a swap meet. It was the first one I had seen - I just had to buy it. Now I'm truly living the Corvette Lifestyle™
