These must be gone in the next couple weeks at most, so JUST PAY SHIPPING on any of this stuff!
If you are local, it is an ALL YOU CAN HAUL FREE-FOR-ALL! GRAB A FEW OR TAKE 'EM ALL!!
Hate to trash usable stuff but I need the space very soon for upcoming spring projects.
If you own and use any of these Kirby models, one (or more) of these motor units would be great to have around for parts. We all know how expensive individual parts can be....
All of these were electrically tested and current draws verified as good. No cords, emtors, or bags included but all have handles and other parts. Most are good enough for restoration or even regular use after adding a bag assy and cord and replacing the belt and maybe the roller brush. If for regular use, I would replace the motor bearings also to ensure very long life.
Below is what I have; see pictures to see what is included.
2 Traditions - very good condition. These pretty clean and will restore easily.
2 Omegas - okay condition. They are quite dirty but should clean and shine up well.
4 Classic 1CRs - good condition. They are dirty but should clean and shine up well.
2 Classic 1CRs - fair condition. They are very dirty and are scratched up but still could be usable as vacuums
5 Classic 1CRs - parts/motors only. These are missing minor parts, castings are scratched, but working motors are intact.
One complete shampooer set for the Classic 1CR. Box is not pretty but contents looked to not have been used.
Various extra handles and loose parts pictured, plus a couple extra Heritage I handles not pictured.
First come, first serve. Based on recent experience, shipping for whole units range between $30 for one unit without the long metal handle to $45 for two entire units in a full-size Kirby box.
Parts and 1CR bare motors of course will be less to ship, depending on what you want. If you send me your zip code and a wish list I can estimate a shipping cost.
Please send a private email or message to me if interested in any of this. I check email only once an evening so expect a delay in communication. I do not have a smartyphone.
Many thanks for saving what is left!

I hope someone does save them. They look like they would clean up nice.
