$250 for a rare machine is a good deal and that’s what I paid for my 1963 RCA Whirlpool Imperial Mark XII set

I sent a message so we’ll see.

Just be aware

The dryer blower is shot to hell in that. 

 

Good luck on the auction too!

 

Oh John how are we doing with my root beer machine - by the way??

1967 Lady Kenmore Combo

Congratulations Melvin on your new combo.

 

The broken part is just the bakealight housing where the vent duct attaches, these used to get broken from time to time, we have some extras around or I could take on off this old brown combo we have laying around.

Yes I was able to purchase this Lady Kenmore combo and pending shipping it will come to its new home in southeast Texas.

Good deal!!

1965 or 1967? Either way, fascinating machine! Looks like modes were done through solenoids.

The model was first introduced in 1965 so it is a 1965 model but this one was built in 1967. Sears had a lot of models that were built for more than one year. The last new Kenmore belt drive models I believe were introduced in 1983 but were built through the end of production in 1986 for example.

Long-Production Models

 
Parents' WP wall oven is a 1995 model-year (RDB245PDQ15).

Serial indicates manufacture Oct 2005 (XS4306965).

The engineering-change number 15 is the highest I've seen.

Hi Glenn. That is definitely a long production run for a model.

When you get it up and running, I would love a video of it in action!

 

[repairguy]

I would like to make some videos of all of the washers and dryers I have but I stay pretty busy with work and I’m not that tech savvy. I’m going to learn one of these days cause there’s no sense in having all of these machines if I can’t share them with others who like them as well.

YAY Melvin

Glad you got it !! Wonderful machine that cleans all the dirt OUT !! 

 

 

[repairguy]

Thanks. Supposedly it’s been in use for the last 7 years so hopefully it just needs a little TLC to return it to operation.

Kenmore Combo

I used to have that same machine but lost it in the purge of 86 a dark period in my history. If I am correct that seems to be missing the blower solenoid.

 

[repairguy]

Hi Mark. There needs to be a great purge of 2020 around here. Unfortunately when you collect this has to occur from time to time. I’m past due for one.

Melvin have you seen the video of this 1969 LK Combo?
