I have several vintage vacuum cleaners to offer for trade or purchase.  They were salvaged from the spring clean-up days in my city, and are in tough shape.  Unfortunately, they are missing power cords (except the Olympia One and G-Es) due to others cutting them off for their copper content; so I am unable to check their functions.  The Kirby Heritage II did not have a nozzle.  Also, none had attachments--except possibly the Eureka (there was a box of white plastic attachments in its vicinity--including a hose and nozzles).

 

I am more interested in trades if you have an original Model R hose and its other attachments (turquoise or gray?) and original tan Model G attachments (I already have an original hose).  In that case, you would only pay for shipping.  However, I could also use some extra cash, so make an offer on one or more of the machines, and I'll go that route if no one is interested in trading.

 

If anyone has weight information on the aforementioned machines and/or attachments please post them on this thread.

 

Machines for trade or sale (pictured):  Eureka canister Model 800; Kirby Tradition; Kirby Heritage II; Olympia One PN-2 (for parts)

 

Machines for trade or sale (not pictured):  Olympia One (for parts); GE Swivel-Tops (C8--machine only and C12--with attachments)

 

Enjoy the day!

actually the nozzle on your tradition belongs on the heritage II. the castings are different due to safety switches, and your tradition WILL NOT function with that rug nozzle on it.

Will,

Thanks for the info.  As you can tell I am not familiar with Kirby vacs.
