    hoover lark = kirby ???

    the base and back side of the motor on the hoover lark in some ways looks alot like the mid kirby models / classic/ classic 3 and tradition. i wonder if some of the same people worked on designing for both. any opinions or facts would be awsome. my friend and i are in friendly debate on this lol
