As much as I wanted to take a pilgrimage over there, being halfway across the country and working a stubborn job makes it very difficult.
By time I could go (like next year), everything would be gone. I would also feel compelled to fill up my truck without a place to put the stuff at home.
So Jimmy, since you mentioned you would ship, here is my vac parts Christmas list for projects I have that need completion:
All need to be as best quality as you may have (except for the old grey cloth bag).
The G5 stuff needs to be able to be cleaned up (I will do) and look almost new.
Let me know what you have and I will make it worth your time to look through your stock. I have liquidated a lot of vac parts and I know how time consuming it is.
Also I am not in a hurry, so take your time. We can talk later when you have a list of questions. I am willing to fill up a regular Kirby box.
Thank you...
