My "new" 1960s Kenmores

[70series]

Thank you Gordon once again for the high praise. Yes I do hope to continue our email conversations. I have learned much from them.

Nate: Good to see those resto photos of your 61 again. Ever since the photo links in the now defunct Member Links section of the site were disabled due to the switchover of Yahoo photo albums to Flickr last year, I had not been able to view those shots of the 61. Now I know where to look for them. That was a great job you did on that Kenmore.

Pdub: Thank you for posting that link to the AZ graveyard; another group of photos I am glad to view again. There were lots of washers I liked to look at there including a 1963/4 Hotpoint Silhouette which was similar to the very first washer I had growing up.

Have a good one,
James

Phamq,

I was just helping out by posting the link.
I've never been to this place so you'd have to ask 'roto204' about it since the pics in the link belong to him.

It does look like a fun place to check out.

Some neighbors I babysat for had this same Kenmore 70 washer. Luckily, it sat next to a floor drain. The center-post must have been nearly broken off, it leaked a steady stream through the entire cycle. Still, I played with it for hours.
