Decided to reassemble my Kirby’s as I’m tired of their body parts strewn all over my floor. When their polishing appointment arrives then it’s time lol. Yes I name them.
From left to right: Fatbag(505), Crusty(561), Kirbs(560), Booze(519), Sprinkles(560), and Grumpy(510)

Two not pictured are my all original 505(Dusty) and 512(Ol’ Sarge) as they’re not fit to be seen in our family photos. But I’ll show their eBay photos. Now my room smells like musty dirty kirby.

'Yes I name them.'

Great appellations, I love them!  You've obviously given a lot of time and thought to their naming!  Thanks for sharing, too.

Nice looking family. I have a family of them ranging from 1957 to 2012. My go to is my 1987 Heritage II. I refer to all of them as "Jaws" from the movie Mr. Mom.

"sell any here?"

There will be very little if any shipping.Nothing turns a good day bad or a bad day worse for me than stopping to pack and ship.Plus the unknown of what could happen between 'here' and 'there'.(If anyone finds the Kirby parts the US postal service sent to the northeast 3 years ago let me know!)
When might you be back in NC?
