Project Kenmores - part 2 (1976 green beast)

[stainfighter]

name for 'Green Beast'...

how about the 'Green Hornet' or 'Mr. Green Jeans' ? LOL...
you have done a wonderful job and agree with Mike it looks great with the dark control panel (but they didn't make them that way in the early 70's did they? that wasn't until late 70's? I think my Mom's had dark panel and it was from '77)

Matt - So you feel like restoring? COOL - how about pink AND Turq? What do you have in mind?

Mike - Thanks for the nice compliments. The job isn't really that big a deal as the top is porcelain enameled, and I just cleaned it with a smooth stovetop cleaner, and the cabinet with warm soapy water. The control panel was swapped with one that had been stored in decent shape and cleaned with appliance cleaner wipes.

Robert - This is a 1976 machine, and the first year of the black panel model, which lasted with the belt drives until the end of production.
