Kirby Fun

[dysonman1]

My friends and I try to get together at least once a month for Vacuum themed fun. This weekend marks our “October mini meet“. Kirby was on everyone’s mind. And the “king of Kirby‘s“ came to visit. Adam is such a great friend. And a lot of fun. Like having Dawn Davenport for a friend.

Adam restored this Kirby 519, completely modernizing it while keeping it true to its original form. Even Mr. Zakk approves.

Adam brought his Kirby Legend 2. It’s beautiful.

Here is a close-up. It’s stunning. It runs so quiet and smooth, it’s hard to believe that it is more than 30 years old.

Buffing Kirbys. They shine like a mirror.

 

[dysonman1]

Taking quite the shine to it.

 

[dysonman1]

All done. Another beautiful Dual 50.

Ready for my close-up

A great mini-meet. I love my friends

Nice

It looks like it was a blast. I'm digging the blue version 519. The vacuums look great and someone who lives for them around makes it even better.

The Kirby, in blue, is such a beautiful machine.

Damn

Yes it's nice and shiny too.

 

[dysonman1]

Horrified at the dirt.

That’s so cool it amazes me how little Kirby has changed over the years I really like the older models

 

[dysonman1]

Three beautiful Kirbys.

Who said a Kirby can’t clean?

 

[dysonman1]

It’s like Louis Vuitton on the inside of the Sani scraper.

Great friends & great restos - glad you kicked it with those Kirbys!

 

[dysonman1]

Like the inside of a Louis Vuitton purse.

That blue belt lifter decal always intrigued me. Did Adam custom make that or is it aftermarket? I know the red ones would say "to fit" in small letters but still had the Kirby logo.
