And here is the brushroll It was used on 2" shag for almost all of it's life, Hence why the bristles are still in good shape.

Heritage II
Davis, As Norm said above, hopefully it will be yours someday. (FYI: Small tip for 'ya, the brushroll is flip-flopped end-to-end. [The 'end-caps' may be 'chewed up' & need replacing if not tight fit.] On all Kirbys prior to '98 [if original brushroll], the angle of the bristles should be 'sweeping towards the center" where the "suction hole" is in the nozzle. Also, the "head" of the screw should be facing the floor surface. [I'm not able to see in the pic, if it is or isn't.]) I wish you well with your collecting. If I may be of further assistance, let me know (email me [profile]). Take care & hagd(n) Bill | ||

Granny's Kirby's....
That's the best way to get them!!!! I have both of my granny's Kirby's. My granny on moms side used a dual 80 for years, and we found the paperwork and sent it in for a factory rebuild, and it looks brilliant! That d-80 is actually what started my obession with Kirby's. Then my granny on my dads side, gave me her Kirby Heritage after her home was destroyed by the massive tornado that struck Oklahoma City on May 3rd, 1999. That Heritage was one of about three things that could be salvaged from her home. Amazingly, the only thing that broke on it was the fan. She said if I wanted to clean it up and fix it, it was mine. Those are two machines that I will NEVER part with...
