I had to repair the linkage on this old girl, it has a unique front wheel set up of 2 sets of front wheels. 4 in the front, and two in the back. The front wheels would self adjust going from a smooth floor to carpeting, giving it's name "Automatic"

Kieran,
Yes I did buy this on eBay but the seller first had it as local pic-up only. I contacted the seller, but he wasn't interested in shipping it, but after a few months they relisted it at a higher price, and did offer shipping, so I bought it. It took two Kenmore's to complete this one. Pictured is the Kenmore I used to complete this automatic. I used the handle and bag from the one on the right to complete it so it's not all original, but I don't care it's a good looking vac. I might replace the cord with an older style cloth covered cord in time. It has a Kirby cord on it now that matched the handle color perfectly. It's hard to find these with the handle grip intact. Side Note: I worked on my two Kenmore's at the same time. Also pictured is the Automatic and the Imperial together. This post was last edited 04/28/2021 at 09:18 |

I would imagine the hose would have been black and chrome tools? Those sets must be super rare as I have never seen any in my 51 years. As well as the imperial (bug eye). |
