Ok , so i was at the local vacuum shop to day getting belt for my convertible and came across a pre omega Kirby for 35 bucks. I don't know exactly what it was (ie sanitronic, 305,ect) but as far as i know the vacuum does work and looked to be in moderate to okay condition. I know next to nothing about Kirby except they are like virtually indestructible tanks. Any info you have would be appreciated.
Thanks,Mark

Mark,

The 560 was produced from 1960-61. The Dual Sanitronic 50 was first introduced in 1965.
