Hey gang,I've been filling in at a Milwaukee vacuum shop,noticing scads of very hard to find out of date parts as I clean. It's an Oreck shop that has for years and years carries lots of other things. Their number is 414-769-8787.

Let me be the first to put in my order. ;-)
I am looking for these parts:

(1) Original bag for Hoover model 28 and model 800

(2)Handle for a Hoover 750, 800, 825 any of the listed models use the same handle

(3) Pre-war Hoover rear wheels

I'm not looking for hand-outs and will gladly pay for any parts you may be able to provide.

Thanks in advance

I need some Hoover Convertible Parts...

But I seriously doubt you'll have what I need, as the Convertible Parts I need are just plain IMPOSSIBLE to find. :(

For example, I need a new full Hood and Headlight Lens for my newly acquired Model U4007 Hoover Convertible in Harvest Gold, if that's the Color, but I'm not so sure on that...? :/

I also need a replacement Original Hoover Cord for my Model 33 Convertible, plus a new Hoover Medallion, as mine is Scratched and Dented...

And lastly, if that's all, I need a new Handle Bail for my Model 707 Convertible, plus the whole Headlight Bulb Assembly, as mine caught on Fire, so, but I'm sure you don't have what I need here. :(

Later!

James C. Gockel

Any Vintage Kirby Parts?

If so, I need a sani-emtor for my Kirby model 1C. I'm pretty sure it's the same part all the way up to the model 515. Also, if there are any cloth outer bags with the early Kirby script, please let me know. Thanks.

I could use a bag and hanging hardware, a handle bolt, and the belt guard cover all for a Hoover 28.

We go back to the 1950s,even have Constellation felt secondary filters,Sunbeam orange bags, Singer bags from the 70s, etc. Call if interested. Lots of Hoover metal fans for Convertibles also. Hoover parts are BIG around here but not pre WW II.

Hi David,

hygiene903's profile picture
I would be interested in a hood for a model 35 Hoover Convertible and bags for Kirby 512 and 517, and dust brush and utility brush for Kirby D-50. Also strip brushes, bags, and attachments for straight suction Electro-Hygiene. Email me at pressmanjs@yahoo.com with info on availability and prices. Thanks,
Jeff

David,
