I was at the Goodwill and was thinking that they had overpriced a nice old typewriter there ($75) when I saw this Hoover 344. Pretty dirty and the paint on the base is in really bad shape, but for $5 I couldn't resist! It runs well - I think I'll just clean it and leave it as is.

cleaned it up a little bit, greased the bearings, put a different bag on. Looks better. If I find an original outer bag, I might think about painting the base.

repainted the bad parts before and after. Just a can of spray paint. I think it looks much better, but I'd love to find an original bag...
