Hoover Convertible 1076

I got a Convertible 1076 Friday (See picture). Drove to BFE to get it! Cleaned up nicely... I just need a headlight lense! Anyone have one?

Ahhhh....the 1076....

It is one of my favorite Convertibles. I had one...brand new...in the 70s, and foolishly got rid of it. Here's a few pictures of other members' 1076s.....see next post John L.
