FOR SALE 1974 Kirby Super Sweep American Lincoln FOR SALE!!!

[kirbyman89]

If anyone is interested, you may make an offer and I'll sell it to the person who makes the best offer. The cord is not included because I didn't receive one when I purchased it but there is a LIKE NEW METAL FAN in this machine. This machine needs new carbon brushes and possibly new bearings, but besides that, it runs beautifully. The machine is green and has an 18 inch wide nozzle!!

Kirbyman89, what is the bag set up? What kind of bags does it take, assming it takes a paper insert? Was this original to the machine, or was there a Sani Emptor originally? Also, are brush rolls still avalible for these, or do you know?
What year did these come out? Im assuming mid 70s? Thanks!

 

[briankirbyclass]

Oh, 1974, just saw it in the heading, thanks!
How long were these machines produced?

I have that same cleaner. Mine has the original bag which is white perforated vinyl with a cloth insert inside.

Dear Briankirbyclass

I don't know how long these were manufactured, or if the brushrolls are still replaceable if they were ever replaceable. Ohio_Tuec described what the original bag looked like, for I've never seen one. I really hope to get an offer for it soon. Happy offering!!

What's the story behind these cleaners? I assume they're commercial models?

Nothing more than the dual 80

Hi All I also have that mine we call the July 4th unit as it is Red, White, Blue. I would like to get a new floor brush so far i cant find it. VERY HARD to put a new belt on. I take a almost new belt of my Heritage2 that makes it easier. All and all very good vacuum. Take care Doug

"Speaking of ugly-ass vacuum cleaners," heheh!!

I used to have one of the red-white-blue "American Lincoln" machines. It went the way of one of my garage cleanups. I forget now who took it, I think it was Kyle Mathews.

 

[kirbyman89]

Well anyone interested in making an offer?

[kirbyman89]

[kirbyman89]

This machine is quite rare and was not many of them exist. Ans now it's for sale and I'm looking for a good home for it.

"Kirby Hybrids" (lol)

I am able to put my hands on several of them locally where I am. However, that said they all need to be gone thru & restored. So based on what you would let it go for + s/h would decide if I am interested.

If you wanna shoot me an email (profile) with what you'd let it go for & the s/h amount.

TY in advance

Bill

Super sweep

My mom is trying to find out what it's worth. I had a guy offer me $2000 for it once but I didn't sell it to him. Do you know where I can find out what it is really worth??
