Vacuum

I found my dads old vacuum, its a simplicity 1690024. Its been sitting outside not covered for at least 10 years. I brought it home cleaned it up a bit, mounted it to the tractor, put a new belt on it, fired up tractor, engaged pto, wa la it works. they just don't make things like they use to. Now that I know its operational I'll rebuild it, if I can find or fabricate the few items I need. 

I'm actually looking for the adaptor that goes on the deck, if I can't fine one I'll fabricate one. Also looking for the 7.25" plastic tube for it also.

The deck boots were different depending on the 42" or 48" decks.  

Also, there was a posting a long time ago that had a website that sold different tubing sizes that would suit your needs.
