Just won a 2C Kirby

[LionKCommander]

ive been bidding on a 2C Kirby on eBay, when I got an Email yesterday I thought I got out bided but when I opened it it turns out I won it, it made my day because I have been having the worst two weeks ever, I think my grand fathers dementhia has gotten worst. Once I get it in I'll take a lot of pics to share with all.

Terrible sorry about your grandfather's condition! Congratulations though on your 2C, your up with the BIG BOYS now!!!

Was it the model that had been rebuilt in the late 1960's by the Kirby factory with all the mismatched parts? I saw that one on eBay as well, but I knew it would take a lot to restore it to original condition. Congrats on getting it. Now the real search begins for the original black wheels, bag, trim, etc.

Thanks cb123

Yes it is, I think I have the wheels and the bag its going to be fun finding everything elce. I guess the up side is that it has a newer field and armature, my 1959 Kirby has the original field and it's leaking I'm lucky I just found a brand new field for it so once I put in the new field and armature I don't have to worry about the tingling sensation when I touch the metal bits when I use it.
