Ron,

There were three others: the first one is the model 1330, sold from 1967-1968. Styled with a green bag and gray cover plate. The next one was the model 1340, sold from 1969-1972, and styled in brown.

The third one was the model 1348, styled in green and seal greige, sold from 1973-1977.

And the last one - the one you're referring to with the honey color - was model U1025, sold from 1978-1980, although some wholesale outlets continued having inventory of it through 1982.

Ron,

Also... prior to the 1330 Lightweight Upright, Hoover had three more such sized vacuums throughout the 1950s. These were:
Model 115 Lightweight Upright - produced 1949-1953 (trim color is various shades of brown)
Model 12 Lark - produced 1953-1956 (trim color is dark red almost throughout; cover plate is gray)
Model 14 Lark - produced 1955-1957 (trim color is white and light blue)
