It all started with the Diamond Edition Ultimate G by Kirby. My grandmother bought it new from a door-to-door salesman with all the attachments. However, it got lost in a foreclosure. Since then, I had been using Bissell, Hoover and the like. Until, I found my Kirby Heritage being thrown away. I picked it up, cleaned it, restored it and purchased all attachments (aside from the Handi-Butler group) for it. I since then have been restoring friends' Kirby's for them. I have thus far done two G4's and a Heritage II/Legend.
