The Hoover 375. Won this on eBay.uk about 2 weeks ago for around $100 USD shipped. It came quite early by about a week, and boy am I glad it did! The bearings, though a little dry, had no play at all. The bag has no holes, and quite an odd system in place to keep the edges from tearing on the clip(two little round posts on the edges). The original cord needed replacing, thankfully I had a black English cord on hand from my Z25 conversion. The belts I take it are hard to get, but I was able to shave down a stretched out handheld flat belt to fit the groove quite well. New carbons are definitely on the list, but these work. Might repaint the handle pole as well, it is missing some paint especially by the bag clip. Going by the large mound of dirt in it, the clog in the intake, and the fact that it had the original 2 wire cord(England converted to 3 wire in 1962) I will bet this was not emptied since the 50s!
