Anyone near Erie, PA care to make an offer on the following Kirbys:

D80: Runs nice, motor sounds good, unit is complete with exception to the following; missing the metal emptor, and cloth bag. It does have the green bag hanger cover and hanger. It has a blue tradition plastic handle, in place of the olive green, but the main part of the handle is original to the D80. The spring that holds the handle upright is bad. Very dirty and will need buffed.

Classic III: Also runs nice, comes complete without attachments. Fully working, however very dirty and will need buffed.

G3: Runs terrible, lexan fan is broken and will make motor vibrate. Motor bearings sound OK however. I only ran just long enough to make sure the self propelled tranny works, and it does! Handle does not stay up on its own. Comes complete without attachments. Very dirty and will need buffed.

Looking for someone interested to make an offer and pick these up. I just simply will never get to restore these, and they are duplicates.
 
Let me send some pics to you and will get s hipping estimate. I got a floor jack for Christmas, the vac should fit in it well.

The "blue ones" you speak of are the Kirby Tradition.


 


The "red one" is likely the Kirby Classic III, if it looks very similar to the Tradition and has a metal Emptor, or it's the Heritage if it has a gray plastic Emptor under the orange bag.
