Like Christmas in July...

And I am a bit unsure as to the year of this machine. I swear I saw a date stamp that read '63' on a the rinse agent reservoir, but I am not sure.
To help date it, the model number is 587.65530 and the serial number is 58113.
Can't wait to do more testing on this one!

Ok, so that was Saturday...

On Sunday, I did some tinkering with this baby...

 

[turquoisedude]

It's a stand-alone GE pull out (model 1-SU60M3 serial number 55117741) which I believe would date it to 1955.
Racks and cutlery basket are perfect!

Tub has some rust stains, but it's solid!

Experience being a good teacher, I replaced some very doubtful wiring in less than 15 minutes...

And when hooked up, it worked just fine!! The original light still works too - this baffles the hell out of me because I could not figure out how to make the light for the 56 in the Kitchen Centre work...
I did a water test, too and it went just fine!
Sadly, I don't think I will be keeping this machine... I got three more machines than I planned to this year so far and I reeeealllllly don't want a divorce...
Stay tuned...

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Does the Roto-Rack just spin from the impeller below?</span>

<span style="font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Looks like fun!</span>

Nice..........

The Kenmore is really awesome.

I have a " Philco " branded model of your Kemoe,

 Dude. Not as fancy  , just two buttons , no rinse agent apparatus ,no electric illuminada.  Brent , there is a perforated black spray

tube aimed at the rotorack on mine ; same on Pauls I would wager.

Guess what color mine is , Paul !!!!

Wow, love the Pink racks in the Kenmore Paul. The whole styling of the Kenmore is absolutely beautiful. It appears this is a 1965 model by the model number, but the catalog model is slightly different. Not sure what is going on there.

Glad the light for the color-coded cycle lenses works. That's why I thought it was important for that model to be saved. Hope you have fun with it.

What Fun!

You got some great machines to play with there. That Kenmore is very unique. The GE is a beauty too. Maybe this one will help you figure out how to get your kitchen center machine to light up!

FANTASTIC, I love anything Kenmore!
