It's a Kirby Heritage Home Turbo Group! Here's a link to the auction. I bid on it, and hope I win it. Wish me luck! Joe http://www.shopgoodwill.com/viewItem.asp?ItemID=17597586

That is an awesome deal I built my Sentria from parts I bought off ebay and it was a heck of a lot more than $60.

I had a similar experience With Electrolux in the past.  When I lived in Beaver Falls in the late 80s, early 90s, I had a model Super J trade in I bought as is from a friend that ran a vacuum store.  The power nozzle needed repaired, and it didn't have the suction I thought it should have had. ...

I remember an episode Where Carol had to go out of town, and didn't want to leave.  The family and Alice assured her everything would be fine until she got back.  Alice ended up tripping on the kids Chinese Checkers set left on the floor and sprained her ankle.  The doctor ordered her to stay...

Do you have any Compact attachments? Hi Jimmy,   As you probably know, I recently bought a Compact C-8 on eBay that is in really good condition, and Shane was nice enough to sell me a power nozzle for it.  I need a few more parts to get the whole thing up and running.  Specifically,  I need...

How about Circuit boards in a toaster?  Oh shoot ...

Those are beautiful! I have a Model XXX, and a full set of tools for it thanks to Tania.  Those hoses look like the hoses that came with the Kirby Heritage/Heritage II machines, but with Electrolux ends.    Joe

Thanks Shane! The power nozzle for my new Compact is on the way, along with the triangular shaped dusting brush for my Kenmore canister.  Now this week-end I'll be on a quest for an electric hose and wands.  I may just go to the vac shop and see about getting a cord that straps on the outside...

Looking for electric hose for my Compact C-8, and a set of wands for the PN i'm buying from Shane.  I found a few hoses on eBay, but came across this one.  What is the seller thinking?  Hose is relatively cheap, but look at the shipping! Yeow!!!  I've bought things from Canada before, but...

Compact and Revelation Compact and Revelation vacuums were exactly the same except for color.  Interstate made the Compact for door to door sales, and the Revelation for vacuum shop sales.  I believe they only did this with the C2 models though, I could be wrong.    I want a Super Shef...

Shane, Please check your e-mail.  Thanks,   Joe

How do you take the bag off?  I have a Concept One, and the bag is really filthy and needs a good wash.   Joe

That looks like A Royal Prince. I could be wrong.

Hey Kevin Yes, I think that PN is the same that would have bee sent with the new to me Compact I just bought. Those pictures of BurgerChef you posted look exactly like the one my grandparents and I used to go to. Such good memories! Thank you for that. Joe

Hey Ben Eureka made a lot of Montgomery Wards (Monkey Wards as my Nona and Grandfather used to call them) vacuums and badged them as Signature (Montgomery Wards house brand). I remember going to Wards with them (my dad was a die hard Sears Kenmore fan) when we had to replace my mom's old...

I went by my local vac shop and bought a package of bags for my Compacts.  They didn't have genuine Tri Star bags but had bags from a company named Enviro Care.  Does anyone know anything about these bags?  Also,  did Compact make the same  models in different colors?  My C8 is gold/yellow, and...

Hi Kevin You are correct.  A few companies did go to Eureka for the power nozzles for their machines.  Compact did, as well as Rainbow.  I used to have a D2 that had a PN that was a Rotomatic with a Rainbow decal on it instead of Eureka.  I think even Air Way used Eureka nozzles at one time. ...

That's great Rex I have a C2 i bought off Shop Goodwill about a year ago and it was complete with the original attachments and even came with the original instruction manual.  Sad thing is neither the donor or Goodwill themselves bothered to empty the bag.  When I got it, it was full of dirt. ...
