Hoover Windtunnel U5301-9RM

Hey guys I recently purchased this Hoover windtunnel U5301-9RM at a yard sale. Doess anyone know how old tis model is? Thanks

I believe the age is based on the 1st 4 digits of the serial number. For example, my Hoover Power Drive's serial number starts with 0797, so the vacuum would have been made in July 1997, or 7/97.

I MUST get all of mine together for a family photo

This latest one was bought new...for only $20.00 plus free shipping. It's the "Anniversary" model. I thought before I got this that they only made it in blue. I was wrong. It's as heavy as the Convertibles, though. So much for 'plastic'...only cheaper, not actually lighter in most cases. I'll post a pic later.
