G'day knowledgable folks...
Wondering - I'm trying to locate a complete set of tools for my Kirby Heritage (I'm lucky enough to have a 13 inch nozzle model) but I didn't purchase the tools with it when I bought it... I'm kind of needing them now and would like to track a set down - a set that's in good enough condition to be able to use regularly... Does anyone know: - anyone that's selling a complete set and willing to ship to Columbus Ohio? - if they ever made an extended length hose for this model? - if someone can make me a new hose (to the length I need and with the correct heritage coupling) and then I can use the tools I have for my Sentria? Any help would be appreciated! Cheers Ste |

Steve, if I was you, I would just check your local vac shop. Kirby's from the 1970's & 1980's are largely unwanted now for the most part, due to the weight & effort it takes to push them around, & having to convert the darn thing to use hose & tools. Us collectors may love them, but most "average" consumers despise Kirby's. Your shop should have tons of old Kirby hoses & attachments & you could probably get them for cheap too.
