I'd say... Maybe a Hoover Junior belt? | ||

Hmm... I think a Junior belt would be too thick...a 370/375 belt might be a better match...but it looks like the original would have been thinner even than that. | ||

It's a crazy idea, but I'd try taking a flat belt of the proper length and cutting it's width down to a smaller size with a razor knife. You could use a ruler or a piece of wood as a guide. A bench vice would be even better if you have one. | ||

Sweeper Vac or is it??
Hi Jack, congrats on another classic find, now to the question, is it a "Sweeper Vac" or is it a "Little Wonder" I found a similar one about 5yrs ago and have never known where / who made it!!! This one is a Little Wonder "Whisk Brush" Vac, New York, USA, 220volts, AC/DC, no handle, the tube is metal coated with burgandy paint....the belt is miniture, just had a look and an elastic band is the nearest...another thought, a nylon sewing machine belt might work, will have a look this week,love the dinky brush-roll..
