It's a Sanitaire Jim, but not as we know it...

Now, to say that I originally bought this C12 for parts, I'm doing a lot to do it up, today I've been doing some hood swapping between Sanitaires (ZC-880 had a headlit hood for loop-handle models, put that on the S663, the S663 had a hood for plain handle models which didn't suit the modified handle assembly, so that hood went on the C12, which had a rusty hood that desperately needs repainting, and the ZC-880 got it's original hood back), so now the C12 is looking more like a Sanitaire now, and if I get it a red Sanitaire ST bag, it'll definitely be what it is by nature, a Sanitaire...

Anyway, the trio, from left to right, it's C12, S663 and ZC-880 (no motor):

And the top of the C12 hood after the label was removed:
