    I think they still have the "Hoover Vault" with still some unused models from the 70s & 80s in North Canton. The Hoover Historical Socitey has all the real "coffee can" models on display.

    Sorry, didn't read your post correctly. I have the slide clip with no spring. Not the scissor brace. BD

    I may have one somewhere in storage. If I do, it's yours. It's ok but I won't use the scissor brace. I remember my aunt's Hoover which had what looked like suspenders on I think a 425. There were 3 long suspender like straps attached to the bag.
