Sam,

I certainly didnt need another Hoover, but my mom sent me the link, and when I saw that flawless bag. I nearly dropped over. She got the whole thing for less than $20.00

That Citation is gorgeous, Chad! Awesome find! I've only seen a few of that early bag style.. I found a late model with the mysterious slim bag at a sale last weekend for $10. It's in rough shape, but I got it for that bag.

Great find Chad! That bag is in amazing shape. The model 64 is one of my favorites, Hoover at it's peak in my opinion.
With all the lucky finds Fred gets I wish I lived in Minneapolis.

Chad, you do have an awesome mom, with a great eye I might add! I have the Citation with the slimmer bag like Fred's. We chatted about that, whether the slimmer one was a later replacement or not. I saw both types of bag at the convention, interesting!

I had that same model a very long time ago....same bag with attachments. The neighbours gave it to me because they got plush carpet & could no longer push it on it. Had I known I would have hung onto it...
