Hi everyone, it's Liam, Just wanna say for my 18th birthday for my main gift, I got a restored Kirby model 505. It was rebuilt because it had replacement parts, however the tag/name plate on the bottom of the fan case is still the original one. Amazingly I actually had a factory original Kirby...

Another Note Do you also have a Scott and Fetzer Sanitation System by any chance? I am on the hunt to get a complete and all original one some day. From Liam

Big Note WOW, how amazing. Hi David, it's Liam again, how's everything going? Oh and just to be sure How is that spare Kirby 1C inspection coming along. Did you find out that it works good? I am in desperate need of a 1C armature for my Kirby 2C, so that it may work perfectly again. I also need...

note Hi there, I'm always on the hunt for early, prewar Kirby vacuums and Scott Fetzer machines such as the Vacuette electric and the Scott Fetzer Sanitation System vacuum. To Dennismenace, I would be extremely interested into buying this Vacuette electric model J. It is my 2nd to most wanted...

Important Note Guess what everyone, Tomorrow is my 18th Birthday and for my main gift, I'm getting a restored Kirby model 505. I will later post it here and share lot's of beautiful pictures of the 505. From Liam

reply I'll take your advise very seriously kirbylux77 and sorry for the inconvenience of me pushing a little too far with a honestly very cheap price. I got my Kirby 2C for $300 plus shipping, so let's wait and see what David feels comfortable with, when it comes to selling that Kirby 1C. To...

Note To Remember When you do get time to post that Kirby 1C onto eBay, please do not make the price thousands of dollars. I personally do not have a lot of money to spend and I only have over $120 to spend. Any price between $150-$250 would work best for me and that's if the Kirby 1C is...

Important Reply Hi there, it's Liam again. Does the Kirby model 1C that you're going to sell on eBay turn on and work properly, without any issues? I am in desperate need of parts for my 2C as I've said. Also, how is that spare Kirby 1C inspection coming along? Has your tech guy been able to...

Update Hi there, it's Liam, just wondering if you had any good luck with getting that spare Kirby 1C up to working condition. Hopefully you did have your tech guy inspect that Kirby 1C and he got it up to working condition, simply by replacing the carbon brushes. Hopefully there isn't anything...

Question Will your Kirby Tech guy have time to inspect that spare Kirby 1C of yours, some time this week like today, tomorrow or over the next couple of days? I hope the problem is only with the carbon brushes. Replacing them is a very simple task to do. Just get a flathead screwdriver and...

kirby note As I said, I recently got a volt meter and I conducted three tests on my 2C armature, to see if it has bad windings. The 3 tests were a bar to bar, a 180 degree bar and a bar to ground test. I took readings with my volt meter and found out that there was a lack of amperage and...

To odavid123, Hi there it's Liam, just wondering if you had time yet to inspect that spare Kirby 1C motor and see what the problem is, as far as why it won't turn on. I also sent you another message on your post "Headlight cap black trim for a Kirby 2C". Hope everything is going well and you had...

Note To odavid123, Hi there, just checking in and seeing how everything is going. I hope you're inspecting that spare Kirby 1C and looking over it to see what's wrong with it. Good news, I got a volt meter today at the hardware store and will try to use it to see if there's any problem with the...

reply No worries, I'll try to be a little more patient. See if you can get in lots of time on Sunday to inspect that spare Kirby 1C motor. Anything that you find that is causing the problem, please let me know. Any update on the functionality and working condition of the vacuum, please let me...

quick question To odavid123, Hi there just checking in and seeing how everything's going. Just wondering, how is that Kirby 1C motor problem inspection coming along? Did you get a chance to look at its carbon brushes and detect the issue as to why the motor isn't working? I also sent you two...

Note Please give me an update when you figure out the exact reason why that spare Kirby 1c is not turning on. Once you find the problem, contact me some time very soon. If you get the 1C to turn on then please tell me what you notice about the motors working condition and if there is any...

reply You say you have a motor problem with your spare Kirby 1C. Does your spare 1C even turn on? If not then the problem is directly related to the carbon brushes being worn out. If there is still plenty of carbon left in the brushes, then the vacuum should turn on unless there is a broken or...

Note Hi again, this is Liam. I noticed you have a spare Kirby model 1C, a spare Kirby 505 and a Scott Fetzer Sanitation System all in boxes. Since I have a 2C of my very own, Which is in desperate need of an armature and other parts, is it ok if I buy that spare Kirby 1C from you or even a...
