Ok

I'm not on youtube. I'm sure someone on here must know him and be his friend or he may even be on vacuumland to show use the video. He may even upload it if you ask him nicely.

Andrew, thanks for uploading the Heritage II video....

It was much appreciated!

Bill, thanks for answering a question I had about the Turbo Brush for the Heritage II. I thought for SURE my black Turbo Brush would have gone with a Heritage II! Now, question is this....when was the Turbo brush officially discontinued & replaced with the Zippbrush?

Also, I have the opportunity to buy a early Heritage II....with the new Heritage II powerhead, but strange enough, it doesn't have the Brushroll Light; so was this introduced mid-year 1985 then??

Thanks in advance for your answers, Bill....

Re: Questions...

James,

The Generation 3's included the video in with the basic attachments, in the Kirby Kaddy. I do realize they do not seem to be around much. I surmise that it is much like the HII video, in that probably most of them have gone the way of the trash.

I'm sure I have pictures of one somewhere in my old literature. I presently do not have either the HII or G3 videos for my collection. I am on the lookout for them as well.



Rob,

I believe both the Zipp Brush & Split Second hand vac were introduced in 1985. The trimline nozzle also debuted in 1985; however, the BPI was not added 'til early 1986. And further enhancements included the molded cuffs for the hose, which I believe started in 1987. There were some 'hybrid' hoses early on though.


I hope this info helps clarify things.

Cheers & hagd/n all,

Bill


Ps: James, If you shoot me an email with your telephone number & best time to call, I would love to talke Kirbys with you. I always enjoy your posts, articles & collection.
 
Well thanks for the wonderful heritage II pictures!

I never had all my parts and machines together at once, so I could never take a picture of my Complete heritage II with split second and holder.
 
James, G3 Video & email...

Hello James.

I am well, ty. :-)

I received your email, & will reply either tonight or tomorrow (hopefully). Benn a little crazy here, which is a good thing. :-)

I knew the G3 video was mentioned in Kirby literature; however, I couldn't recall where. I have included a 'snapshot' of one place it is/was (below). It is/was on the Owner Care Program brochures. I know there are more places, however I do not recall them at present.

I L@@K forward to talking with you, James. I admire the restorations you've done with your Kirbys, (as well as the 'other' ones too!!! ~~lol~~)

Cheers & hagn/d,

Bill
