If I ever make it back to that part of Virginia, I want to go there. The last time I was in Winchester was August 2000. Glad you were able to go for the dedication.

My now deceased neighbor Dan had one just like that, but gasoline engine. He had bought it used, and his wife sold it soon after he passed. My buddy Jerry had a '95 in black.

Eddie, your Buick would have been similar to my first car, a 1967 Pontiac Tempest. My mom bought it new, and I got it when my dad bought her a new 1973 Buick Electra Limited. It was a basic but decent car, and I kept it until I got until I got a 1967 Oldsmobile Delmont 88 around 1976, which I...

Sorry, I really don't need anything right now, but thanks!

Hey Pete, sorry to hear you're leaving the area, but wish the best to you and Doug in your new home.

Matt, when I worked at a hardware store that was a Maytag dealer in 1977, we sold several wringer washers. I think Maytag made them into the early 1980s. People in rural areas liked them for various reasons. Some farm houses didn't have sufficient water pressure for automatic machines, and the...

Several years ago my friend Jay had a HB toaster with a plastic case. One day it caught fire on the countertop, and set a roll of paper towels on fire. He unplugged it, and put the burning items out with the sink faucet sprayer. If he had gone into his bedroom or bath he may have been trapped in...

My cousin Lisha went to med school at Ole Miss back in the late 80s. She now practices in Birmingham. Oxford is the home to one of my favorite restaurants - McAllister's Deli. We've had them here in Ohio for several years, and I go a couple times a week. There's several people on here that...

If there's a lot of new construction in your area, the power co. is probably installing new lines and equipment. This is likely the reason you've been having short term outages lately, as they have to disconnect power to switch things over and make connections. Mine was going out often in the...

My former neighbors Ann and Russell bought a Sub-Zero when they built the house in 1985. She said it was a constant source of trouble, and wished they had just put the 1964 GE bottom freezer refrigerator in the kitchen.

Hey Paul, are you in the Tupelo area? I have a cousin that lives there. I have lots of relatives in MS, but most are in the southern part of the state. My mom was from the Hattiesburg area. Hope you find this group helpful.

Thanks for the additional info. All my catalogs and parts- service manuals are at storage.

Thanks Lawrence, I didn't catch that. Was 1970 the first year with matching toe panel?

Based on the serial number, it was manufactured in either 1970 or 1982, in August of whichever year. I think 1982 is more likely, as the toekick panel is white to match the rest of the cabinet, and previous to around 1971it was black. In 1970, most models had pushbutton surface unit controls...

Looks like him to me. He didn't appear in any movies or TV shows until 1971, so he was probably just starting out acting then. The lady with short reddish hair in a couple of them looks like someone who was on Bewitched occasionally.

I remember seeing some of them when I was in high school. Saw several familiar faces in these that I recognized from seeing in TV shows, but don't remember their names. The ranges shown appear to have been WCI Kelvinator, as Whirlpool didn't have a range factory at that time. Some Kenmore...

Well, I did it. I woke up cold about 7:30 this morning, and thought now's as good a time as any to turn it on. Works fine.

Are you trying to make V8 juice?

I was cold again this morning, and came close to turning the heat on. I probably should try it before it gets really cold to make sure it's working right.

I still look decent in jeans at 70. I do a good bit of hiking, and been told I have nice legs.
