Hey
I got a royal 235 right after my mother passed and it was a project. I got it close to being done. I was missing the elusive belt cap and I'm told a wooden handle? I found a belt cap I'm wondering on the handle? I'm attaching pics. The vacuum was adoninized bronze colored. | ||

Les,
That's a nice looking 235 you have there! The adjust-o-rite you found looks to be the right one, or at least close enough that it will look good on it. Having the original hose is also a plus. As for the handle, it looks both original and complete. Don't know of any wooden parts that go on there. Hopefully it runs as good as it looks! Here's a pic of my Royal 215 for reference.

Thank You Les!
Thank you for the kind compliment, but I've got to admit I don't deserve credit for this one. It was one of many vacuums given to me about 10 years ago from a friend and former collector who was downsizing his collection, and most of them were in excellent condition. They were all uprights, mostly Hoovers, Royals, Electro-Hygienes, a few Eurekas, a Good Housekeeper, and a Health-Mor. I just try to keep them in the same condition as they were in when he gave them to me.
