The story of the 'Custom Cord-Reel Hoover Convertible'

 

[dustin]

Very nice! it looks like it just came from the factory!

 

[eurekaprince]

OMG! It's a "Hoovereka"!!!!

Is that even legal??? :-D

 

[vacuumfreak]

Wow that's cool! Nice work.
It can't be any worse than putting a Chevy engine in a Ford!

That is awesome!!!!! Very nice indeed!!!!!

 

[blackheart]

Nice work

It looks good. The paint job on the hood turned out very nicely

It was bound to happen one day -- Mr. Hoover married Miss Eureka. This is one of their offspring.

That is amazing work, Kyle!

I bet it works like a charm too!

Thanks guys!

I am really pleased with how it turned out. I couldn't have gotten so far without a lot of help with my friend, Chad. It works wonderfully. It may not be an actual factory done machine, but essentially it is exactly what a Cord Reel Convertible would be Glad you guys like it.

Very cool!  Great idea -- that color matches the original pretty well!  How did you run the cord from the winder into the handle/wire it up?


 


Final product looks fab!

Awesome vac!

You have created a really nice looking machine there! I LOVE seeing things like this, taking something and rebuilding it into something else that may or may not have really existed! You certainly have something to be proud of there!

 

[rugsucker]

looks great!

The two tone paint on CW looks better than originals.Next?Ever seen a three tone DeSoto or Packard??Might want to look,find another ugly and scratched vac and go back to paint store!!

Excellent Work, Kyle!

It's beautiful! Looks like it could have come from the factory that way!

Sooperdooper Super-upper job, Kyle! The Hoover Bug medallion over the cordwinder bolt is the perfect touch.
