    Hoover Model 27

    Hello All: Would someone who owns a Hoover model 27 with the original paint finish please share with me whether or not the gray color on the sides of the hood matches the color of the metal base? Also does the handle match the top of the hood? Many thanks and happy Thanksgiving Marty

    How this came about . . . Hi Ben: Here's an excerpt of the announcement I made about all of this at the Chicago convention this past June. I think it pretty much answers your question. Yours, Marty An owner of the Fabulous Fox Theater in St. Louis where Stan Kann played the legendary Mighty...

    Hoover 150 question

    That's what this website's for, Karl! Looks like you have the "special" type handle with the single speed switch. It looks like an after-after market vinyl handle grip was installed on it at some late date. I'm afraid the two-speed switch is out of the question with that handle. Marty

    Handisac Clip

    An authentic 29 is strictly a shake-out situation. The flanged mounting collar that is unique to the 29 cannot be retrofitted with either a Handisac or type-C mounting assembly. I would advise against trying to use a handisac mounting assembly with a 29 shake-out bag. The bulky and angular...
