She has been sitting ever since new. That's a couple decades of water damage, mold, and corrosion building up on top of itself. My G5 Kirby is the same. Under all the filth it is a brand new shiny vacuum.
You cannot kill a Kirby, so do not worry about what it looks. Just hit it with a soap and water bath and then some wire brushing and polish and it will clean right up.

I think the brush roll is probably toast, but everything else is likely salvageable. Take your time and make it shine!

Amazing that so many people, can spend so much on a new vacuum, then treat it like that. And after such a relatively short time. The other extreme is those Kirbys still boxed and unused.

Yuck! If that’s restorable (and I believe you that it is) I have been very fortunate in the ones I have found. I won’t complain again about having to remove a little hair from the brush roll! I’d like to see it when it’s done.
Looks like it was on the bottom of a lake!-But she'll clean up.
