Hoover Yes Greg, this is the 1st of them. The 300 series were the wringers and the 500s were twinnies. This machine looks like a later 500, the earlier ones had a blue spinner lid and blueish trim. Still this looks fab even if it is slightly expensive. If you look at the picture of the guts, it's really neat, you can basically make out the wringer/single tub unit with it's wheel pump and then a spinner unit on the side. This thing has to weigh a ton. There were MANY changes in the machines that came shortly after (0510/0512) like the single belt-driven belt from the spinner.

Great machine, but has been listed for a while. And at that price, I don't think it's going anywhere. I found the exact same machine at Brimfield antique show last week. The asking price was $150. The last day of the show, the seller dropped his price to $100. I was going to offer him $50, but changed my mind and decided not to buy it. It will probably be there again at the July show.
