I found this gorgeous Hamilton Beach cleaner from 1934.
It’s a two speed model with a headlight!

Here are a few before and after photos! She runs very well

Very Nice!!I found a later model years ago at a yard sale.The height control,which may have been called 'Toe Touch',was very easy to use with a touch of your toe.

WOW!!

Kyle,

What a wonderful find, and once again you made it look better then new. You have set the bar very high here. Inspirational work indeed. What type of rivets did you use to attach the nozzle trim? Also what did you use for the nozzle bumper trim?

Love your work!
Jim

Wow!

Kyle, You do such beautiful work. It's like walking into a showroom in the 30s and viewing a perfect vacuum. Amazing.

where did you get the cloth bag? I need one for a similar vintage Hoover upright.

Hi Andrew!

I made this bag and did all of the mock up and logos in photoshop. They’re then printed in vinyl, which essentially melts onto the bag with iron on adhesive. Fantastic for recreation of vintage bags!
