I would have given you whatever I had for that 1C Kirby. I am in Florida though, and I just came across this... if it's still there, would you ship? |

The Vacuum Palooza was amazing. Donnie and I packed the car full. Thanks again to Father Bruce for his awesome sale and wonderful friendship. Dinner at Corkys barbecue was fantastic.

We had a blast today at the Vacuum Palooza. I rode with Tyler AKA Gsohoover, and we left with a car full of treasures. Many thanks to Father Bruce for inviting us and sharing his machines with us. Here are the machines I got.

I grabbed the Automatic E and the Compact for the two guys who were asking about them. I have the ability to pack and ship. Send me an email guys. The rest of the vacuums, the many that are left, are being brought to St. James to be given away at the vacuum cleaner convention, the second weekend in June at the vacuum cleaner museum.

What hose end was used on those compacts? Was it the standard hose end or the end that Tristar now uses? I wonder when this particular compact was made. This motor has a very nice pleasant sound to it, very similar to the Electrolux G or 1205. I can see why so many manufacturers used it. Mike |

The Compact I brought for your from Fr. Bruce's Vacuum Palooza was made in the mid 1960's. It's a model C6. You'll love the motor sound. It uses standard hose end, they didn't go to non-standard until Electrolux bought them in the late 1990's.
The Air-Ways of the 1970's have the wonderful Ametek motor and use standard 1 1/4 inch hose ends too. Both machines will fit your Volt and you'll love using them. Convention is only 2 weeks away now - so excited. Don't know how I'll fit 60 people (confirmed coming) into my house for a cocktail party? |
