Mike,
Your machine was made July 1987. No, no missing vacuums for me... I have two Kirbys already: a Classic III and a Dual Sanitronic 80. In my mind, I am missing a Tradition: precisely, the very first copies that had the speed switch mounted inside the headlight cap. ~Ben

Thanks for the tips, Ben! Vintagevaclover, that's a sweet Hoover too! The Convertibles are wonderful machines, great on carpets. The tools are anemic, but that's what canister vacuums are for. |

It's still stunning...I remember the first time I saw that vacuum was in the Coral Springs Mall in one of the stores I heard it running went in & saw this vacuum. I was so fascinated by the mini emptor it had compared to the regular one so I went to the Kirby guy & ordered a mini emptor for my Tradition. Had to wait since it was a new model & weeks later got it, put it on & used it until we got a G3
