Some restoration pictures. Here the tub is removed. The cabinet was sandblasted and painted and clearcoated. You can see the Delco-Remy motor at the bottom of the tub.

It also has the top loading door that stays up by itself. What a big help that is! This baby is a fine runner and is my current everyday user. Thanx to Vincent at Reeco Timer for helping to bring it back to life and to Bob at Stoudt's Auto for the fine paint job.

Nice restore. I know you had said that the Westinghouse had a broken hinge. What are you going to do with it? would you be interested in selling it? let me know.
It's a beauty! Those impeller machines can really throw water if they're loaded correctly. Thanks for sharing the pics with us.

way cool.. what a nice machine..looks like a total blast to play with
Very nice. I think that is the oldest 'Kenmo D/W I ever saw.
Is it very loud?---silly question----I just remember all of the impeller machines as making quite a roar with all that water flying about.
If they just could have figured out a way to filter the water and back-wash the filter between the different phases of the cycle, those old impeller types might have survived.
