1967 Hoover Junior 1334E

[alexhoovers94]

Here is my Hoover Junior 1334E which I got off eBay for free, well, it should of been 80p but the seller said "just have it, I only put it on there to advertise it anyway"
It needed a "little" work. It was filthy so I gave it a really good wash and polish, I washed the bag and then got out the sewing machine, installed a new bag "holder clip" and sewed the hole closed, god knows how that holder was lost! It’s bearings were terrible, well I say bearings, just the front one, it had terrible growl, so I smothered it in grease and now it sounds much smoother.
I replaced the carbon brushes, because they were about 4mm long (no joke!)
I had to sort out the brush roll bearings too as they were stiffer than a concrete wall!
After all that, it just needed a new bag and belt and here it is.

Here were the pictures from the eBay listings.

May 1967


As you see it says 1334E and it should say 1334A because of the coulour scheame it is in, the 1334E should have a grey bag, not green, but I much prefere the green bag.
