I will look for the pic later.. But the Dirtsearcher existed in yellow. I have seen two, I have no idea if for the export market though.

I sent you a message on FB. Thank you very much!!

I believe the later uprights did. The issue on this is that there is no belt access hole on the front

I recently picked up this Royal model 43 from Luke’s mini meet. It has a metal brushroll and no real way to change the belt other than hand strength. Also, only a stretchy white rubber belt will work, not a normal royal belt. Anyone have any info? I’m kinda thinking prototype given how...

Wow!! What a list! Excellent work!

There was also the ZC89, which looks like the 90 but has one rear button on the back and no cord winder. These were made in UK and in Mexico for the Mexican market. Also seen some Luxes branded as Kenmore south of the border...

I have a couple weird ones I'll show soon. The cleaner you have marked as a red z55 is a Godfrey's rebuild Aussie only z40. Originally sold in the same skin as a UK 55.

I've been to Jimmy's shop twice. Both times I left with more than I went for and he was nice and accommodating. If you are willing to spend some time looking through the stuff and are within a day's trip of it, I would say it is absolutely worth it.

Tellus was their old export name for a time. I adore that older machine! Would that be.. 30s? 50s?

Welcome! Those are all the same machine underneath. It kinda just goes off condition, and which one you like the looks of the most. The Kirby rebuild program from factory I am fairly certain was recently discontinued for non-original owners, or at least they will only rebuild the 80s models and...

A collector named Mike Balda did a 28 this way awhile back. This is what the end result looks like

A recent find from Jimmy Martin, enjoy the before and after shots.

A recent find that seems rather fitting. An Electrolux built in the Uk in 110v, made for US and Canadian military bases.

Might you have any black wheels? Or a grey 512 handle grip?

Without a doubt my Swedish built ZA30 I imported from Mexico. It is rated for 127 volts like most Mexican appliances. I adore the coloring and after some internal work it runs as quiet if not quieter than a G.

I may have a handle. I definitely have a generic handheld vacuum bag that can be fit to the cuff if its there.

I recognize that machine :) Did you fix the handle spring?

I'm still very interested in the (very old) Elite and possibly one of those Ohio Tuecs if you have them.
