This is a link to the vacuum. It looks like a 560 or 561 with a ds50 or ds80 emtor. It has tradition narrow wheels a custom belt lifter. The bag collar and topper and cord. He has a heritage orange bag. He has a Florida green power button.
He has a belabor or jet heavy duty polisher with a built in vac for debri and dust. His setup sounds exactly like kirby uses and Kent oyler used. I don't have this much stationary power but portable power. The setup he has must be great because his vacuums he's been selling are awesome. This vacuum is his latest release. There's no another seller with a powder coated black sentria 2 with black belt lifter etc. I'm attaching the link on the next line. https://www.ebay.com/itm/385264264036QUE...

The vintage 1960 Kirby does look nice, but mismatched a bit and too many generic parts used. What's up with them doing the trim in black, yet putting a generic turquoise power switch cover on? Don't tell me Kirby or some aftermarket company doesn't produce a black one. And not a fan of that generic shakeout bag made to look like a genuine Heritage I shakeout bag - doesn't have the stylized K logos like the OEM would have had, nor the pocket for the bag scraper.
However, I would definitely buy the black Sentria II! That looks really slick and well done. I like the grey Kirby bag with the stitched on Kirby logo - looks like a genuine G series replacement bag. That bag looks a bit like the styling of the Oreck outer bags too. | ||

Mike, that is a beautiful Kirby D80 refurb! Now THAT'S the way they should be done! :). You would swear if one didn't know better that it came that way from the factory.
As for the Heritage lookalike bag? Just a guess, but maybe he can get more money for the 2 blue shakeout bags, so he put the Heritage lookalike bag on instead. And I would have agreed with possible sunfading on the power switch, but that looks just a bit too perfect to be that. | ||
