Blue Convertible with Stripe bag U4349

[hiawatha4]

Scored a Hoover Convertible U4349 with blue hood and orange handle releases and striped blue bag by the curb the other week. It does not have the Hoover emblem on the front by the headlight.

Cleaned her up and lubed her and dumped out the bowling ball size paper bag nobody changed.

She is in need of a the plastic headlight cover that says "Hoover Convertible" which is square with red lettering, since she has the square hood.

Anybody have a 1980's headlight plastic lens they would like to sell?

Here is a photo of one, but not mine.

Thanks!

Congratulations!  That's a great vacuum.  The headlight covers on that series were very prone to falling out.  I have one that barely stays in.  Good luck on finding one!

It came from the famed John Wannamaker Dept Store in Philadelphia. Might have 2, have to check.
