The Volex came out mint!

I fibbed on the bag earlier, I've just come across the photo's! I did fit the bag lower down to the holder to get past this hole, the only bit of damage on the whole bag

Hence it sits slightly lower here



And is a tad tighter here...



But NO FEAR, because I fitted the patented Beko Hepaflo mod using a Dyson lower hose, a Sebo bag with the top chopped off, electrical tape and a cable tie

Hopefully now if they have been using it, changing the bag wont be so awful to do!

And with that, it's done!

Probably one of the worst condition ones I've done, but it shows that these 119's do come up well with minimal effort and a bit of paint! The church were thrilled too, the chap was ever so happy when he unboxed it looking quite different to before!

Thanks for reading!

Is this church Heywood, Manchester or Heywood somewhere else?

Bloody epic rebuild from what was pretty much scrap!  :bow:

Yes, Manchester Heywood! Your 119 should have the same mod iirc, sure I was doing it back then!

James - sure I dated it to mid run, nothing too special

Would you say these 119s are worth doing up?

I got one knocking about i bought a good few years ago now, not really bothered to do it up, the furthest I got was removing the motor as it has noisy bearings, ever since its sat in me loft.

Not sure if its worth attemping to round up the bits, do it up and flog it, give it to someone to restore themselves or whatever or just get shut of it as it is
