Just thought I would share a couple of photos of my Hoover 652-A from England. These were taken a couple of years ago when he had just arrived in the States. The other Hoovers have gathered round to check out their newest sibling!

The picture is a bit misleading as 3 of the convertibles in it I've custom painted. The purple and blue model 70 and turqouise model 69 should have pearl white bases. The coral red 728 should have a light taupe base. Most of the Hoover bases were white, but every once in awhile they'd do something crazy like the green 707.
I love how the 652 contrasts with the others though. Every time I look at it it's like looking at a black and white photo of a vacuum cleaner! |

Nice collections! I'd love to see more of the Convertibles with the painted bases. I'm surprised Hoover didn't do that more often. Nicholas |

One more Hoover convertible in my small collection.
This is not a Hoover 652A but a Hoover 6525C. This one is my 7th vacuum of the same model, very commun in France. The saler has bring it to me. Vacuum stays about 40 years in a basement and stays "almost" new. The bulbe lamp works, the brush strips are in very good condition. All other parts are in perfect condition. I just had to put a paper bag and install a belt. Believe me, I was happy to get it for only 25 € |

Hi John. The junior was given to me from an old lady and has never been used. |

Hi Olivier You can buy a cable tie and put it around the bag to cover the outer bag. Cheers. Paul |

that's fine. It just always goes down to the base, covering the belows. I suppose, if one weren't careful, one could accidentally kick the bellows, loosening it from the cleaner. It just looks like it 'off'. But, if you like it that way....enjoy.
Some of the commercial cleaners, with the cup, have exposed bellows, so, I guess................. I had to buy a bunch of those little screws and nuts (replacements), to secure the outer bag to the base. Still, a great cleaner, with or without 'exposed' bellows, lol. John |
