The machine also came with the original bag with no rips or tears I was shocked. but the bag was full of really thick and nasty Dirt  |

You will never have to buy another vacuum cleaner again. What a fantastic pair of finds! I also remember Badata just got a model 28 himself. Wow! |

I have about 40 so I think you are right I won't have to buy another Vacuum again. plus I am using this 28 as my daily driver Next it will be the other one. I hooked my set of attachments up and it does have pretty good suction

Maybe that comment about you not having to buy another vacuum cleaner again was a little harsh! LOL! That would defeat the purpose of being in this club! I'm just a little edgy because my big out of town trip yesterday only netted a few tools and no vacs, and today's trip before life shuts down for a week only found two open thrift stores out of five. I'll be in touch. Thanks, enjoy the Hoovers and keep the pics coming! |

no it was not harsh actually I was not offended at all a lot of people say that to me because I have so many so I do not mind. there was no need for an apology. |

No, I don't have any Hoovers that old yet. I'm going to scope out the local market before I try eBay. |

Nice Find, Mike!
And the original bag makes it even better! The 28 has always been one of my favorite Hoovers. My Aunt had one when I was little, and the church I attended while growing up had one that I used to run frequently as a teenager. The one from the church, which is now in my collection, was expertly refurbished for me last year by Tom Anderson. Thanks again, Tom!
