Went out and saw Bob today.
Someone gave him a Hoover and he asked if I wanted it. He just gave it to me. Pic 1 is the Hoover closed before cleaning Pic 2 is the Hoover open before cleaning Pic 3 is after I cleaned a little |

I found this one in Mint Green. Still have it. Did the usual clean up even though it was in great shape. I found it a Goodwill years ago. I have yet to use it. The plan is to list it locally on Craigslist. I loathe packing and shipping. |

Nice looking Portable!
I have a soft spot for them, because a gold colored version was the first vacuum I remember from childhood. I picked up a pretty clean turquoisey one at the local Salvation Army store a few years ago. I think it was $10. It's not a daily driver, but I do bring it out every once in a while. Years ago, I was actually trying to get an orange one that my in-laws were no longer using, but I guess they threw it away rather than let me have it. Barry |

I want one! Every time I've tried to look on eBay, Craigslist, OfferUp, etc I haven't had any luck finding one or they are selling for ridiculous prices! |
