after much waiting & having to get the outer plastic motor housing for it, my bison is finally up & running. LOVE IT SO ! this was new in box but broken when i received it. i finally found a case for it & put it together today.it has all the attachments that have never been used , plus extra stuff from the other one.

Dwayne,

You certainly went to great lengths in getting this Bison restored to like-new condition! Other people who had ordered Bisons of this vintage on eBay had also experienced a lot of broken plastic parts upon arrival.

Wow.

Look at the LINES on that bovine beauty! And that headlight! Too cool.

Hey, is it me, or does that bag look enormous? 

It looks a lot bigger than a Kirby bag in that picture.

That would be crazy. I'd only have to empty it every couple years. lol

bag on bison

it's about the same size of a kirby bag, it's just the sideways manor which it is installed on the vacuum which makes it look bigger. thanks for all the good comments. kirbycollector in columbus, good luck getting one this nice at a CHEAP price. if sellers would pack it properly there would be no issues with broken pieces. it takes extra care & packing materials to do it right. love that bison !

Either you need to change your vacuum bag or you forgot to LOG-IN?
