Hi Vacuumland Members I own a Hoover Guardsman Model C14129. It was manufactured in the 1980's. If anyone knows how to date these types of Hoovers please let me know. The Serial Number is:089900113200.

Spencer....

Hoover made after 1987 can be dated by the first 4 digits of the serial number. So in this case 0899, equals August of 1999. I can tell you right now, just by looks I can tell you its not from the 1980's.
 
Thank you very much. Even though it's orange it was made in 1999. I'm also looking for a Type A or shakeout bag for it. If anyone has either of those please let me know.
 
Hoover has had Orange as a commercial color for many years! It really just depends on the time and the machine as to whether the machines were orange bag/ white hood, orange bag/ orange hood, orange bag/black hood. Gray and black bags have been around for a while too. I'm sure someone has commercial catalogs for the various periods.
