- Hey everyone and welcome back to my channel! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Today I’m starting my new series for June, Resto Month! Today I wanted to share a 1983 Hoover Celebrity that was left in pieces and in need of a motor. I hope you all enjoy the video and please like, comment, and subscribe!
Love theses. My second favorite Hoover canister besides the Dimension 1000. I really want the one with the electronic control powermatic.
Oh definitely! The electronic machines were so cool!
I've always loved the Hoover Celebrity, it's a machine of my childhood as my aunty and uncle had one on their farm. However it does irk me that Hoover did us dirty in Europe. We only got four models between 1973 and the machine's discontinuation in early 1983. From memory we had: 2x S3005 (red and yellow), S3001 Deluxe, Celebrity Custom (which was brought over when the Hoover Factories went on strike in late 1974), then the final revision of S3005 in 1982 which was a standard S3005 but in a 1980s colour scheme and with a more deluxe floor tool. I'm missing S3001 from my collection unfortunately.
In Europe we never got Celebrity II, Celebrity III, Celebrity IV, Quiet Series etc etc. Nor did we ever get a power nozzle. Damn you HOOVER! I do own a Celebrity II with PowerMatic that was shipped over from America in 2000.
Oh interesting! I love hearing about the history of Celebrities! I have seen a couple that were offered in the UK and would love to find one myself, but I know they’re pretty rare over there, so finding one might not be in the cards lol
@@Konstellation_Karl_55 They do pop up on eBay with surprising regularity; far more so than one would reasonably expect for a 42 - 50 year old vacuum cleaner, that really wasn't great quality from the get-go
@@TheVintageApplianceEmporium oh good to know! I do look periodically, but finding just a specific power nozzle isn’t always the easiest haha
