Once when I was much younger I recall seeing a Hoover Convertible in a thrift store. It was white and had an orange hood, the bag was white and vinyl. The odd thing was soon after I remember seeing what I am pretty sure was the same vacuum in the trash in front of a house in my neighborhood. My parents let me pick it up. I remember my mom saying that it probably still worked, but I was afraid to plug it in. Later I put it back in the trash. If I recall my parents would let me pick up stuff from the trash as long as I threw it away when I was done playing with it.
Anyhow, does anyone know what model this could have been? I am pretty sure it had a plastic base, so I am guessing 1980s. At the time I thought it was much older.
Also, another story. My mom cleaned a building once a week for extra money. There was a Kirby there that I was afraid to use, and a tan Hoover Convertible. My mom never used it but I did use the Convertible sometimes and I remember the rumble that it made.
