Justin, mine is definitely not for sale! What all of a sudden you want a Convertible again after you bid up so many on eBay under many screen names back in 2007?

Here is something you dont see too often!

This was when my collection was at a peak 46 vacuum cleaners.


Enjoy!

I have all machines except the red U4123, lavender 33, and Commercial convertible 344 in eggshell ( had two so I gave one and the others to Fred S.)

It's really hard to decide

Pick one!

Not really a favorite

One that's in a nice color and that has a headlight. Not much else to say.

I'll vote for model 68. Blue with the older hight adjustment. Also the last one that the handle matched the hood.

The model 65@69

Hi All I love the 65 my parents back in 1959 got the Pink 65,My Moms sister the same day got the Gold 65. My parents gave it to a friend who needed a vacuum in 1969. My Aunt traded it in for a Kirby Classic she loves Kirbys at least she gave me the classic. She now has the g6 and loves it. She says this will be her last vacuum ( she is 87)any way she says when she goes the g6 is nine.Sorry my mistake my Aunt did NOT TRADE it in she gave it to me it works very well. I put a four brush roll in it Wow works as good as any new Kirby. Doug

The top two

on my wish list would be a pink 65 and the lavender 33. Mom's friend had a 65 and I would entertain myself with it contentedly in the livingroom while the women had coffee and talked in the kitchen. I loved stretching out that hose to see how far it would reach. An aunt had a lavender one and her house always got a thorough cleaning by me whenever we visited. My cousins were never so easily amused!

Hey John,

How are you doing? Hope all is going well with your health and the remodeling.

While I'm not a huge Hoover fan, I really like the second one from the top of the stairs. Back in 1977, I used to hang out at a vacuum store in Venice FL after school. I remember the man who owned it was a Royal dealer, and also carried Hoover. One day we needed a new vacuum, and my Dad worked at the bank across the street from the store. He gave me the money to go buy a new vacuum of my choice (within the amount of money he gave me) and I chose a convertible almost exactly like the one on your stairs. It had the white metal base and yellow hood and bumpers just like yours. The only difference was the bag was a two tone yellow flowery pattern. I got it and the attachments for around $80. I took it over to the bank and put it in Dad's car trunk and couldn't wait for him to come home. I've been looking, but can't find another one like it. If I ever do, you can be sure it is coming home with me.

Mark - I love that Polka Dot Hoover! Fab-u!
One of my two favorites:

John, that 65 is just stunning!

The bag looks so crisp and new! Such a pearly white base. A perfect pumper! Beautiful cord!

I can go on and on!

I also have a Golden Model 65, it was found on Craigslist a few years back for $5. I have a brand new hood for this that a very generous club member sent me, it'll get installed soon and I'll post pics when it's on.

My other favorite would be the Pink Model 65.

Alex
