Last Friday I was on my way home from school and there was this truck and trailer in front of me and they didn't tie everything down on their trailer and they hit a bump and this hoover fell out of the trailer and I had no time to react and the vac hit the grill guard of my truck and I was shocked to see the little cansiter had survived with no damage except the cover over the switch had broke off so I threw it in the back and tried to catch up to them and by the time I did they turned to the entrance of the dump so i took this Hoover home and fired it up and the bag was so full that it was about to burst so here is the lucky little Spirit

Nice :)

What a shame the tubes and tools didn't fall out with it!

I agree but it works real well with the Eureka PN

Nice save :) I hope your truck didnt suffer to much. Ill poke around after vacation to see if I have the switch cover, If I do Its a darker brow or black :/

My truck took no damage but it also has a big steel grill guard on it and im sure plastic wouldn't have harmed it

Oh... and the cover should be black
