After 86 years our company is closing its doors. I have some machines that need some good homes. All will go cheap. Sorry, but working six days a week to clean out 4 floors of stuff. I have 2 Hoover 102's, 105, 541, 300 with red trim, 700, 725, 750, Eureka J,H, G2, kenkart, airway 55, coffee...

I'm selling a Royal model 145 that I have over 16 hours in its restoration. On ebay with a modest starting bid considering its age and the time taken to restore. If you have additional questions or need more photos email me...

What is the age of my Royal model 145? Serial # 145-3350.....Ben, are you out there?

This hose appears to have the Hoover style suction regulator. Not sure what it fits. It has a friction fit tool end as well.

I've seen post that list these models as c, 3c, 3c, etc. My machine has no model #, but the serial # is C185125. So, is this just a model C, and how old is this machine.

I started this project back near the end of the Summer. By posting this, maybe it will motivate me to get it finished. The 700 was rebuilt at the factory in July of 1940. Great machine with the double ball bearing motor. Need to finish the motor cap, brush, and powdercoat the handle. Some...

I have been wanting to create a thread about this machine since joining the forum. This machine was purchased from a family in central Ohio. The story goes that Mr. Hanner was a Hoover salesman, and took this machine in on trade. The family contacted my father back in the early 80's about this...

Found out from my distributor that Kirby will discontinue the g4&5 bags as well as the g6&Ultimate G style. He claims that they will only have the G3 bags and the Style F Universal HEPA bags in the future for all late model machines.

I know most 300's have the teal badge on top of the motor and the green band around the motor, with no badge on the chassis. This machine has no badge on the motor cap, a red band on the motor, and a badge on the chassis that is a little odd for Hoover. The serial #'s on 300's went from...

I wanted to share this story of my childhood. I grew up in the country and use to go hunting and plinking with my 22 rimfire. We also had a deep pile carpet in front of our gun cabinet. Well, I think you can tell where this is going. Yep, my mom vacuumed up a .22 shell in our Hoover deluxe...

I spelled out the model # because I think the Hoover 800 is one of the most elegant Hoover vacuums, next to the 925. I have had two of these unrestored for quite some time. This vacuum, I purchased about 10 years ago for $5. I sanded the base with a dual action sander with 120 grit to remove...

Hello all, I have a premiere duplex model 53 that is all original. Only problem is that it has a bad armature. I doubt anyone would have an extra armature for one of these. Does anyone know of a good company that would rewind the armature? I got a quote out of Maine by a company called...

I found a 913 on our upper floor under a pile of my cousins's stuff to be recycled. I didn't even know it was there. I pulled it out, and it was pretty hit. The paint was peeling so bad, I decided to sandblast and respray the whole vac. I added NOS agitator holders and the front belt guard...

I'm looking for a hood plate that says "hoover" not "hoover commercial" like on the 7037. I need one that is like new or new old stock. I have some nice Hoover NOS parts to trade for the Hoover guy.
