Sold and shipped!

Hey all, I'm reducing my collection out of necessity, but that didn't stop me from rescuing this 1972 Lady Kenmore. $50. I'll add it to Marketplace in a few days. If no one takes her within a few weeks I'll part it out. Let me know if you're interested. Thanks.

The freezer section has some damage and it's missing the bottom shelf and refrigerator/freezer drawers and freezer shelf.

I NEED the refrigerator it opens the right direction and together they'd make a complete fridge. That one is missing shelves, but so is mine.

How much weight would you guess a 1960 Tappan electronic oven (microwave) and a 1965 Ratheon Radarange would be? I'm moving into a new house and was going to get heavy duty shelving, in an ideal world I'd like them on the same shelf to make a chronological display. Thanks!

Thanks all! I may break down and get that NY dryer, we'll see. I'd prefer to hold out for a 61-63 that has the same knob as I need one for this thing. However, we'll see how impatient I get and if I can get time to go up there. Knowing Westinghouse they put the cheapest amount of...

No, he never wrote me back. Another will show up eventually, I guess. Maybe a lot closer to home.

I could use the parts. It's not ideal, for sure. I wrote him Thursday (3 days ago), he has yet to respond.

I wrote the guy. Here's hoping!

white dryer Ooh! Does anyone know a reasonable shipper to get it from Idaho to Virginia? That's quite a trip.

I'll see If I can get you a photo, I just dropped it off in my storage unit a little while ago. Here's a section from the owners manual I just so happened to gave in my ephemera. It shows the knob, if anyone has one in their parts stash they'd like to sell.

Hello all, I negotiated with the owners and picked up this 1963 Westinghouse DBD-30 dryer in mint aqua. She's got a bit of rust from being in a basement, which I suspect may have flooded at some point, for the last 61 years. I was wondering if anyone had any advice dealing with machines that...

Beautiful job! When you're ready I'll take a few Kenmore scrubber caps! Just let me know the cost and when! Superb Robert! Will

Hey all, Last year I picked up a kds-15 built in dishwasher and a kdi-55 portable. I'd like to make the supurba a portable. Is it easier to move all the portable imperial pieces to the built in (wheels/sides) or take the supurba pieces (control panel/switches) to the portable. Thanks so much.

That went quick. I'd love a Thor... Especially a complete one with the racks. One day maybe.

I'm interested! Thanks so much!

Steve, that's a lovely dishwasher! Congratulations! If you're ever selling it, let me know! I've got a 60 Westy range and a 59 Westy fridge (2nd photo). While I always liked those, I'm I really would like the portable. Does anyone have any leads on a PDW-103? Photo from automatice.org/

When did Tappan start making electric ranges, dishwashers, and refrigerators? I see online they started in 1881 with cast iron stoves. Was gas started about then too or were they just coal/wood? Thanks so much.

Does anyone know how to take off a handle off a kdi-55? I want to fix up the top. The first section of butcher block separated and I removed the bolts, hit with the hammer, but it won't budge. Is there someway the handle comes off? Are the ends threaded in? Is it glued in? Thanks so much.
