Very nice find and unusual looking makes it better.. although I agree with John, to my eyes the color combo is hideous looking. I guess I'd call it the ugly duckling model LOL | ||

thanks for all the kind words ya'll. it really does run great after being serviced. convertibles are much easier to cosmetically restore than a kirby. don't get me wrong i like Kirby a ton, but its much messier to make it look new. sad part is, with the 707, i offically have no more room for vacs. yet there i still want a robins egg blue connie 86, and i still have a dual sanitronic 50 for my collection that will be quite some time before i actually have it in my house! (it's at a friends where my vac business is).

Agreed with John and Pete ! @ John Long, the 707 is one of my favorite Hoovers, among all of my Favorite Kirby's. Yes, it is like a model 28, a must in any collection. Especially among Hoover Collectors. Agreed Pete it is a very different color and look, but it purrs and cleans,So well ! Norm | ||

chris i did switch the speed switch wire connections to the motor when i took it to a friends house to play with tools on it. i noticed the speed went low when the tool converter shoved in. was a simple fix, but glad i caught it, or it woulda burned up the motor after prolonged use like that under the load of the brushroll at high speed!
