Hi everyone !

The summer-season at the restaurant is almost over and- now that I have more time formy favourite hobby, I am now starting some restoration projects and wanted to check if some of you can help me with some missing parts that I need or maybe just with a good suggestion ! The next restoration project are as follows :

PROJECT 1
HOOVER 638 : the motor base ( working ) is in sorry condition ( the original grey paint has formed some small bubbles and is missing on many points ). Do you think I should repaint it or let it as-is ? THE ORIGINAL FRONT LENS ( DIRTSEARCHER ) IS MISSING...ANY CHANCE SOME OF YOU HAS ONE TO SELL ME ?

PROJECT 2
HOOVER 160 : I HAVE ONLY A WORKING MOTOR-BASE ( that I will not repaint but let it original ) WITH BAG-FLANGE AND ITS HANDLE ONLY, all the rest is missing ( switch, cord, bag, bag-clip ). As far as the switch, I can organize something but CAN SOMEONE HELP ME WITH A SUITABLE REPLACEMENT BAG AND BAG HOLDER ?

THANKS SEAMUS ...NOW I NEED YOUR HELP !

I thought I would never find the spare lens for the new 638 thatjust joined my collection...BUT YOU DID !
So many thanks for your help !
I have to buy that online and also contacted the site -also writing them - but they do not dispatch outside UK ! Would you be so kind to buy that for me and send it to my adderess in Italy ? It would be a great help for me,as hoover spares are so difficult to find down here ! I could send you the money necessary via PAYPAL to your email address. So, please be so kind to contact me at your earliest convenience - of course - at the following mail : [email protected]
Thanks again for your help ! GUIDO
