I stopped by The Salvation Army today not expecting to find anything. When I came across this beauty. The cashier said it was for an auction but said I could have it for $24. I wanted it so home it came. It has some rust on it but cleaned up nicely and has all of its attachments. Plus the hose is in great shape!!

It looks like it's in good condition.  Good for you.

 

It's interesting, the Hoover color pallet from the 70s to the 90s.  

 

That flaming orange color was available in the Hoover Spirit, constellation, Celebrity (?), and I'm guessing some uprights.  I just bought a flaming orange Spirit.

 

The Slate green, from last week, was available on Celebrity, Spirit, and some uprights, and the Dimension 1000.

Hoover orange;

was also the color for the commercial line of Hoovers, like the Innovation upright, with the side clean out access, and magnet on the front.
