One's got a switch on the handle, the other ain't? Maybe?

The biggest thing I noticed was the belt lifter and also the lower handle. Is one of those it?

ummm
LOL yes there are diffrences but the main point was the condition one restored one not lol.
The model R has the early model R/Early model C belt cover on so it needs changing. Will do that once I get round to restoring the R model kirby.
I got the trainners/sneakers from a shop lol;o)
There size 9/10 over here which is size 10/11 in the USA I think...

Great Thread ! BUT !
No one is saying what year !!! I like the detail differences
especially now that I know one was a retail model and the other was the door to door model. As I am older then most
of you in age. Have been a Kirby fan since seeing my grand-
mothers brand new model 512 (hint on my age). Plus the fact that I do
have a Sanotric from the late 20s?? with the straight suction
head nozzle. I can only deduct that the R & C shown would be
the 1930's? I need a Kirby Chart. I have to see one for "real", turn it on, run it, to emblazon into my aging
mind to really lock in on dates and models !
It's just me ! I am such a visual man !

Norm I am working on it -- there is such a chart on my Kirby 500 series web page but I need to update it and add the info I've gotten from these recent pre-500 model threads.
