Hoover 150 Pictures!

[luxy1205]

Hi everyone, it's Michelle! I got this Hoover 150 for free about 3 weeks ago! My husband and I restore vintage cars for a living and a customer came in and our boss told him about our collections! He brought in an old Homelite chainsaw for us and this Hoover 150! He said it was his mother's vacuum! My husband called me from work, my day off, and said there was an old Hoover vacuum the customer was giving us and I had my husband look at it and find the model so I could even know what it was!!! Found out on here, that that's a vacuum to have! I will be fixing this guy up eventually! Sorry for poor pictures! Once we get him in a better spot I will take more pictures! Don't have a name for him yet! Any suggestions?!?!?!? -Michelle

Thank you!

I'm so looking forward to using this vacuum! I love everything old! I wrote about this vacuum in another post asking for advice and knowledge on this vacuum before I got it! I got a lot of help with it, but still, if anyone else has anything to share about this vacuum please do! I am NO EXPERT!!!! I love learning!!! Thank you all for the kind words!!! -Michelle

It's the vacuum of the day!!

I might call it, "Survivor".  Look at what it went through!!  Maybe Henry,  in honor of its designer, Henry Dreyfuss.


 


  You'll make that thing new AGAIN!

John, why do you have to come up with all the good names!? I would have said something stupid like Mr. Clean.
