Hoover 376

I heard rumors that the Hoover Junior 375 was released in Canada as the 376. Does anybody have any solid information about the existence of this machine?
Thanks.

It definitely exists, I used one at Mike Roger’s shop back in 2010. There are a few other Canada-exclusive models from this time period as well.

Since I’ve never seen one of these posted about on the forum, and this was the only thread with even a mention of one, I wanted to share I’ve found one. With the lovely help of a super nice collector.
Here we are mid-restoration of this beautiful 376!

Nice! The design of it makes me wonder - is that model what Hoover were referring to when they made this?
