I picked up a Hoover Convertible on Saturday and have been in the process of cleaning it up a bit. I'd like to get the motor rebuilt, but really don't have the time or tools I would need to do it myself. My question is do y'all think my local vacuum shop would rebuild the motor if I took it in? I'm talking lubing bearings, checking carbon brushes, and making sure the motor is in over all good health. I'd love some feedback on this especially from someone who owns or works in a vacuum cleaner shop. Thanks, Sean.

Hi Sean,
Convertibles were popular for SO long, that a GOOD vacuum shop SHOULD know exactly what to do. If they ever sold HOOVER, they've sreviced them before. Let us know how it goes. They're really not that hard to service. The last time I was in N Canton, Tom took my 707 apart, redid the entire machine.
Congrats onthe Convertible! John From start...................
