Thank you ! The phone is an ITT 500 it was produced from 1964 and retired by 1980 Everything was green then ! Lol

Thought I’d share with you this great pic I took after restoring a 1967 DS80! Fun fact : star screws were used to fasten the wheels on these beauties . Which tbh is a pain if you don’t have a star screwdriver 😆

Thank you guys 😊

This 1938 Kirby 2C model, the grandpa of all 500 series vacs and beyond , was in a pretty bad shape . It was a challenging restoration bc of the deep scratches and corrosion over the years .

Thank you all for the support ! Side note : for accuracy I would like to clarify that the “Handi-butler” in the original images is the incorrect version . The 519 featured a clear golden cap . It was also the first to be designated Mark II ! I felt like the red would look better with the...

Les No I just polished them , bc I had to remove the trim which i prefer not to but in this case the original was in bad shape and broke . Here is a 4C with the trim and unpolished rivets . In this case I didn’t remove the trim before polishing .

Kirby Model 4R This 4R restoration was the most fun one . I was looking for this model for a very very long time , I’m just glad I can share it with you :)
