Ben, yes most of this is way cool to have - just need to find time to resto the vacs and sort through the parts to figure out what I need and don't need! 


So here are some pictures from the first two boxes. 


I got the complete D80, just because it is unique.  Also I have to believe Olive Green is coming back as my company (a high-tech place) is using a lot of it in furnishings. 


I got this 50x machine just for the grey wheels and motor parts for my 505 if I ever need them - will put these on that last 509 I got with its grey bag.  This one has a nice 6 blade metal fan!


The Omega here is a basket case but I wanted it for the garage.  I have a blue bag for it.  It has a good 10 blade metal fan.


Last of the machines is this Tradition with a Classic III bag.  Now this just cannot be.  I will put the extra blue bag on this one.  So what to do with a red bag?  Well, I will be getting another Classic III parts unit to put it on!  This unit has a broken grey fan so i will get a replacement next time I go, likely attached to another vac! 


Moving into the parts category, i got lots of NOS and repro nozzle bumpers!

Also a lot of handle decals and three metal carry handles for 5xx machines.  Anyone know which models got the red one and which the silver? 


I got three old owners manuals, one for 505, 517, and D50. Glad to have the 505 one for my 505...


Lastly some cool Kirby memorabilia, including a Japanese brochure for the Omega!


The last box I have yet to go through but hopefully this weekend.  LOTS of small trim parts in there.
