I have really enjoyed this thread.
Lebron, I want to thank you for starting this thread. All the Kenmore washers featured here, were made when they made them right. They all had their own style, and beauty. But the main thing they all had, was quality! My favorites, are the models from the late fifties, sixties, and early seventies.
Aldspinboy, you really brought back some memories with that 68 model alphabet washer with that rotoflex agitator. I'd know that washer anywhere. My parents bought that model brand new in alvacado. That's the machine I would later learn with how to do laundry. The only thing I didn't like, was that if you didn't use the hi water setting, that rotoflex was bad about pulling buttons off. I prefer the rotoswirl myself. That machine lasted until 1993 when the timer died, and it couldn't be fixed. I hope yours lasts a long time. I may be wrong, but it sounds like it's slightly dragging a little. You might want to check the belt on it.
Again, thanks to all of you who submitted pictures to this thread, I wish I could, but mine is a 2000 model, so it's disqualified. I hope to see more pictures, and may all of you enjoy your holidays.
