Came across these two beauties on ShopGoodwill.com, they seem to be in decent shape with the cloth bags and everything. I'd try and get them, but I've got my hands full with my own Kirby projects right now.
Anyone interested in a 508 or a 512? The 512's in Southern California with Pickup Only and the 508's in Michigan with shipping available. www.shopgoodwill.com/Item... CLICK HERE TO GO TO KestinFox's LINK | ||

I saw that
Original bag, cord, metal roller, black emtor tray, bumper, wow. It appears the casting on the front is broken on the left side, as I see a deeper chunk taken out if you look closely. Handle grip can be switched with an earlier one, and painted grey if needed, and there is a 510 headlight cap with grey trim on ebay.

And then it was done.
Now, the auctions have closed. I don't think anyone picked up that 508, so it'll probably get posted again. I'll link it any any other interesting machines I find if they pop up again!
@Gmarquez, I remember seeing your post! That's awesome that you got it, I'm glad it's going to a good home. Also, it's always fun to have a mystery! | ||
