Question Does Kyle Still make replica antique vacuum bags? From Liam

Reply To be Honest, I'm not sure if Kyle still makes authentic replicas of antique vacuum bags, like for 1920's Hoover coffee cans. Is Kyle Kritchbaum still available on Vacuum land?

Question Does Marty Kaplan still make authentic replica bags for pre-war Hoover coffee cans? Liam

Hello everyone, I have been holding onto two really beautiful 1920's Hoover coffee can upright vacuums for a while, and I want to know if someone may still make authentic replica bags for pre-war Hoover coffee can vacuums. I have two Hoover Coffee can vacuums, a Hoover model 541 with a complete...

Reply of Interest Hi there, I would love to see some pictures of that 1930's Westinghouse upright vacuum of yours, that you're trying to part with. I am very interested in seeing what it looks like. I collect antique vacuum cleaners and have many of them, most from the 1920's and 1930's, in my...

reply To Clothbag, Sorry to hear that you are liquidating everything! It must be very hard to give up your collection? I'm just wondering as to what machines you have in your collection, that you're getting rid of. If you are getting rid of or liquidating any vacuum models, I mentioned in an...

Reply To Clothbag, Do you have any Eureka Model 10 or 11's? Do you have an all original Health Mor Sanitation system vacuum, from the late 20's or early 30's? Do you have any early pre-war Kirby vacuums or Scott Fetzer machines? Do you have any Kirby Model 505 parts? If you have one of these...

Quick Note Those look really awesome, especially your early Kirby vacuum motors. I'm glad you saw and commented on my 505 posts, that was very nice. Quick question, do you have any spare Kirby 505 parts, like a complete nozzle with the original bumper and belt lifter, Factory original Headlight...

Quick Note As far as getting a factory original cord for a Kirby model 505, it's pretty much impossible to get now days, since they've for the most part rotted away into history or have at least some sort of dry rot on them. For now I'm Just using a brand new genuine Kirby replacement cord...

Hi, everyone, its Liam, I have some photos of my Kirby model 505 running. That in perfect condition 505 bag of mine looks absolutely gorgeous, especially when all puffed up. Here they are!

Note Believe it or not I actually have a Kirby 505 that has the factory original bag, in mint condition. However the rest of the vacuum is missing parts like Factory original headlight hood trim, a proper 505 nozzle with the belt lifter, an original black bumper, an original handle grip and...

Reply The closest cord I know still exists are early replacement cords for Kirby Models 508-515, which are grey. Speaking of which do you have a Kirby model 1C that has been restored?

kirby note Here are some photos of my 2C!

reply Hi David, Remember I might have talked to you about needing major parts to make my Kirby 2C functional and restored? I would love to have that model 1C. That's just what I was looking for! Is it ok if you sell it on eBay? That would work best for myself. I'd think about purchasing it very...

Reply I do think your 505 bag is extremely beautiful. How about mine?

quick question Hi David, it's Liam, Have you seen my forum on vacuumland "Absolutely Gorgeous Kirby Model 505", I posted pics on the current state of it a while ago. It has a factory original bag in mint condition, an original emptor with the black tray and all four original Bakelite wheels. I...

Question I am in the process of starting off by looking for a correct 505 nozzle with the factory original belt lifter and bumper. To continue my 505's restoration and make it completely factory original. If someone has a spare Kirby 505 nozzle with the original belt lifter and bumper, that...

Update Hi everyone, I managed to find a replacement black Kirby cord, it's a genuine replacement cord, brand new. I'm using it for now until I find a factory original 505 cord or one very similar. I have been vacuuming with it fairly often and it does a nice job. The headlight works and brush...

Note Here are Photos of my Kirby 505. Hope you love it. From Liam
