Yes Alex, that is a nice Hoover. Looks like a model 575 (1930). That bag could have come originally from a model 28. |

Hi Alex, what you have there is a 1932 Model 425. There's info on it on my site - follow the link below and scroll down to the 3rd cleaner on the page. Jack CLICK HERE TO GO TO vintagehoover's LINK |

How can you be sure? The 425 looks identical to the 575. Other than the flat belt and different tool connector are there any other noticable differences? |

Jack, According to your website, this is a model 425 since it has a flat belt. Do you know where I can find flat belts? ~Alex |

Of course I turned it over to look at the model number! I do recall seeing "425" now. :) Putting a Dyson belt in a Hoover is like a slap on the face...but what else would I do? lol |
