Model 1C

I bought a Kirby Model 1C for $1 at a flea market, it was just sitting in the corner and I made an offer knowing nothing about it. The only major problem I have found with it is that the Black disk that is inserted in the front (so you can access the belt) is warped. Do these pieces have a name? Can they still be bought? any suggestions on how to polish these machines?

You wouldn't have a photo of your Kirby 514, if so, I sure would like to see it. Thanks again, Calem!
