A couple weeks ago I went to a vac shop not too far from me and came out with these beauties. The 1cr just needed a cord and bulb, the 516 needed a switch, proper bag, and cord (and grease, but that has not been done yet). Not shown: Kirby handles, Kirby dirt meter, Original d50 cord, and 560 handi butler parts. Oh yeah, and the Bison! Yes its rough, but I was completely speechless when I saw it and it is a dream machine. The cord is chopped and I am scared of taking it apart for fear of breaking it. So once it is polished it will be a showpiece, at least for now. BTW where is the switch supposed to go? The handle? There is no holes or anything for one, just a spot where something slides in. The best part about it, the shaft is not stripped! Pic 3 is of the damage to the original cord on the 1cr.
