Скачать или смотреть Mom's Hoover model 33...

This is what started it all. My earliest memories are of this vacuum. My parents bought this vacuum in December of 1963, for their brand new house which they moved in to in January of 1964. The vacuum(along with all the other furnishings for their new home) was purchased from Clydesdale's Furniture and Appliances in Ogelsby Illinois.
Long about 1973 the cleaner underwent its first overhaul, mom had broken the handle bail, in addition to that being replaced, so were the agitator brushes, switch, cord, and original snap bag.

The cleaner existed in that form until 1994, when I rebuilt/restored it to what you see here, using 2 donor model 33's that had been recovered from the trash.
Mom used it in this form through the end of 1999, it was too heavy for her to push any more. She tried and rejected an Oreck, and a Dial-A-Matic power drive before opting for a Hoover Elite Soft-n-light, which she is still using today.

The old 33 is now in my possession and it is one of my most treasured vacuums. The base/hood/agitator/fan wheels are original. The 1994 rebuild included a new armature and carbons in the motor, as well as the handle/bail/switch/cord/pedals/bag from the donor 33's.
All parts on the cleaner are from model 33's, so in a sense its still original. The lost part is the set of 3250 cleaning tools mom also bought with the cleaner, and she used the s**t out of them. Somewhere the hose and tools were tossed, and all that remains today of the attachment set is the box.
Thanks mom, for taking such good care of this cleaner, as its probably my most cherished vacuum, and a piece of childhood.
