One more Craigslist find.
I see quite a few Kirby fans on the forum, and to someone "not in the know" on Kirbys, it seems like a good price. I guess whether or not the seller is willing to ship it would be the deal maker or breaker though. Barry CLICK HERE TO GO TO JustJunque's LINK on Worcester Craigslist |

That looks like a Sanitronic 562 (1962-63) or a Sanitronic VII (1963-65).
The 562 would have had a white cord with sirocco male and female plug ends, as well as being the last machine to use the old-style O-ring on the fan case for the metal suction coupler - the Sanitronic VII was the first machine in which the hose had a permanently-attached universal suction/blower coupler, replacing the previous separate respective couplers. ~Ben |
