I wouldn't use a Brillo except on actual "crud". Get some finer grade steel wool at HD or Lowes, grade 000 or 0000 for polishing to a mirror like finish. |

It is very tiring I have done nothing but clean vacuums all weekend. I am sore and tired now ready to start my stressful week. As well as I had finals this week. So a bit tired. |

looks like a heritage I with a heritageII head on it to me, and judging by the serial number it looks to be an '82. the early heritage had the kirby logo on the headlight lens, also it did not say kirby on the lower part of the handle fork decal. also the scuff plate had lines simmular to the ones on the handle, their kinda rare!
