    Holy Crap, that thing looks AMAZI NG!   I thought it was supposed to be brown but just had some dirt on it! Great results.

    Who here has a Broom Vac?

    Funny story! I was going thrift shopping with my grandma and found one of those. She wouldnt let me buy it because she thought it was a childrens toy! LOL

    It does look like it came from a small appliance, I have an Iron and a spare cord that look nearly identical to that.

    Sprry for the late post, but... Yep. I agree with David. Kirby does sell door to door still. Last wekk they came to my house and tried to sell us a Sentria.

    Question: How well do the older Luxes compare to the newer Canadian Luxes, like (Im saying this wrong, arent I?) Z-88?   You could vacuum a whole...corner with that cord!

    Thats a beautiful Lux... Not real familiar with Canadian Electroluxes, but still awesome.   But I must say, that is the most pathetically shoprt cord Ive ever seen... LOL

    How to get rid of age spots?

    Some of my Kirbys have the UGLIEST age spots on them- and polishing alone doesnt take care of them.   Any suggestions?

    Yep. More power. Has more amps, too. And the size comparison should tell you a lot, too.

    Kirby Classic III Bags (And Older Kirbys Rebuilt 1977-79)

    Ive seen pictures of Dual 80s in Trad blue, rebuilt between '79-'81, to match the Tradition.   Not sure about the CIII, though, but ill have to check.

    Vintage eBay thread #1

    This is a great idea, Fred!   It will definitely clean up the forums.   So when you make the new forums, is it just one place for ALL ages of vacs, or is there going to be a subforum for ebay listings that are vintage, and a subforum for listing that are newer?   Sorry if that was...
