Here She is With Her tool set. I think this is the correct set for this machine. Also like new. Thanks Charlie. He sent back my Mom's GE Carpet Sweeper as well.

This machine is all original Cord and bag and nary a scratch on the machine. It is literally like brand new. The cord is starting to show a bit of age, but is original. These bags are nearly impossible to find now since they took a beating in use.

Well this machine has more frequent flyer miles than I do. This is a special machine to me since I had one in college given to me by my sister-in-law from her mother who replaced it with a Dial-A-Matic Powerdrive. When I started collecting, this machine appeared on EBay and I bid furiously on...

I am posting this for a friend. He had an elderly friend who recently passed away. He found this in her belongings and is looking to sell it. It appears that it was used a few times and then put away in its original box. Excellent condition. Contact me at [email protected] for...

Here Is My Classic III bought new in 1976 and sent back to the factory for a rebuild. Kirby offered a paper bag conversion which was the Legend II bag assembly with original red trim. Works wonderfully. This is a daily driver.

Rex The Filtex was hooked up to a 120V 30 amp circuit. That is a bit unusual. Optimal setup at that amperage would be 240V which would be more efficient. Not sure why they did it that way (as well as the Silent Master which is closer to 120V and 30 amps). It needs a special circuit no matter...

BTW Just had Tarantula Arms West converted to solar power by Sun Power. The installers were intrigued by the central vac in the garage. They had never seen one before. Going green and saving a bunch on money on Southern California Edison bills (should zero out.) Not bad for having a swimming...

Owen is a Prince I have known him since he was a pup. He suggested I swap out my MD Silent Master S5 at Tarantula Arms for a high-end Filtex which he provided so that I could take the Silent Master with me. It is now installed at Tarantula Arms West in Palm Springs. Thanks again Owen. And...

Looks like A great time. Enjoy!

Now Off for some sun in the spa. I love Palm Springs.

I am using A 40 foot Nutone wire-reinforced hose with the switch on the wand end so you can switch the unit on an off right from the service end. Fabulous.

I have Mostly hard floors with some carpeting and will be using the Turbo Cat for the carpeting. I have an electric hose and a number of electric power nozzles if I want to use them, but will try this for now. If worse comes to worst I'll vacuum the carpets with the Kirby.

The Beauty Of a central vac with standard inlets is that they are a standard 1 1/4 inch tools and so you can use any vacuum tools you want. I am using the vintage Filtex tools for straight suction. Tania helped me get these tools buffed and polished in Racine Wisconsin.[this post was last...

Now I have had this install Replicate a vintage Filtex install at the front end. Used brass inlets that look like the vintage Filtex light and button inlets that came in various metal finishes. Very cool.

Well, I finally broke down and had a central vacuum installed at my new home in Palm Springs. I was going to wait but decided that this fine sandy dust that permeates everything requires almost constant vacuuming. I have had central vacuums for 40 years. The first being a Filtex. I am...
