I believe that O'Connor's Sales & Service in Youngstown, Ohio does brush re-bristling. Give them a call........Hope this helps. CLICK HERE TO GO TO em-tor64's LINK |

Thanks for the feeback so far, here are some photo's. I am going to repaint the motor cover. I have not desided if I want to paint the base, a almost 70 year old vac should have some battle scars. |

With the help of two fourm members, I have found so far what I am looking for, I found the light bulb at ACE "Westinghouse Part #03722" 15W 120v. I will keep you updated as the resto progress. |

Best of luck to you on your restoration! The original bag you have on it appears to be in excellent shape, and that's a great start--they are hard to find! And seeing it has the metal hood makes it somewhat rare if I'm not mistaken. There weren't nearly as many of those as there were with the bakelite hood. Congrats on a great find. The 28 is one of my favorite Hoovers, and a machine I believe every collector should have.
