Here is my Eureka Ultra, My Friend across the street asked me to put together her new vacuum,a Dirt Devil, I said Maybe we can fix the old one ,she said it was a really old Eureka, I thought it might be an old metal body machine,So i was a little disapointed when she brought this out, The fan...

too much suction I love the new connies but don't have one yet,just my model 843 Connie,the turbo rug nozzle sounds like the one on my Riccar canister,it has a suction relief and really needs it,on some carpets like the short loop type on full suction it will clamp down and make it hard to...

Wow The Inncare,Fuller Brush Rebaged Hoovers and others sure banked some bucks on e-bay,and more listed,get em while you can,Congrats

WOW So thats where all the Electrikbrooms are now,I just found my first one last week,the lady next door put it out to the curb,I didn't bother going over to check it out for a couple of days because all I could see was an orange handle grip sticking out of a pile of other stuff,when I went to...

50.00 Oreck Thats about what I have invested in mine,it was a thrift store find,fairly new with headlight and helping hand handle,two speed motor and heavy duty cord,I paid about 15.00 for it at the thrift store,but when i got it home realized it needed a fan housing and brush roller,the parts...

It is a small machine and Cassie is a big cat,I think they weigh about the same. It is a cute design,it is called the sunburst, I had an older Riccar upright,it was a great vacuum,but basicly the same as the Sharp that I have now.

I was at the Thrift store and spotted this Canister,I didn't know it was a Riccar at first until I gave it a second look,Its probably their cheapest model,but it's lightweight and has incredible suction,has the air powered powernozzle, It was 20.00 but couldn't pass it up, It uses the hepa type...

Beautiful model 29 What were the differences in the model 29 and the model 62 ?

Here is my Heritage after using mothers aluminum polish and a buffing pad attached to a drill.

Nice Convertible Lucky to find one with a nice original bag and cord,the hood doesn't look scuffed up either, all the ones I find have paint damage to the base, I've never tried painting one, Any good tips from anyone?

Great Deal I would have paid more than that just for the bag and emptor, I got a great deal on my Heritage II with the small head on e-bay,it had a damaged mini emptor,so I got one off the Heritage II that I got cheap at a thrift store, These are my favorite Kirby's,I had a G4 but it didn't do...

Housekeeper Plus one more pic

Housekeeper Plus Pics Hi Kyle,Here is the Housekeeper plus pics, I think they almost had it perfected when they went out of business,it reminds me of the Electrolux upright,I found bags for it at two old hardware stores here,I should buy the rest of the bags,really old stock items that probably...

Hi Alan, I think it is the same color as your Swingette, the brown is the same as the bottom of my Conny and parts of my Dial-A-Matic, we had a Convertible with the same color on the base,it had a green hood,no headlight,we will have to ask the Hoover experts what the color name is,I don't have...

Handivac I have an older model and it has Handivac on the floor nozzle,I bought it for it's perfect original cord,I was thinking of my Dial-A-Matic,but I think it would be a perfect original cord for my Connie. Mark

one more The rear wheels remind me of a Royal. they make it very stable and balanced, I would never do this to a pristine Kirby,but in this case I think its an improvement. Mark

side shot Still needs a lot of buffing and the front bumper guard painted black

The first thing I thought is it needs wider wheels,so I brought a parts Heritage 11 up from the garage and one thing led to another,the whole Micro Matic adjuster and wheels fit perfect,and the back wheel with their axle also fit without any problem,the belt lifter was a little difficult,but it...

Here is my tired Sanitronic with its ugly conversion bag,this was a curbside find many years ago,Its been in the garage for a while so I decided it deserved a little fixing up since it still runs like new,I spent about an hour or two cleaning about 42 years of dirt and mildew off the original...

I really like both,but don't own either,Just a Sanitronic in rough condition, Charles, your Dual 50 is beautifull,I lucked out like that too on e-bay with my small head Heritage 11, I have the manual for a Dual 80, I like the Discuss-o-Vac pic on the front and the furniture looks just like ours...
