Agitator In The 1966-67 Lady Kenmore Washer....
"James":
The mid/late 1960's were an interesting time in the Kenmore camp.
Starting with the 1965 Lady Kenmore, the Lady Kenmores during the years of 1965 thru 1967 featured the "Roto-Flex" Agitator (which did not have a skirt on the bottom).
But while this was going on, during the same time, the "Vari-Flex" Agitator was introduced. While the Lady Kenmores at the time have featured only the "Roto-Flex" Agitator, the "Vari-Flex" was being intoduced and being featured in the #2 Kenmores (believe it or not, they were called Model 900's..... and they also featured the same Keyboard Consoles as the Lady Kenmores did).
The success of the "Vari-Flex" Agitator went over SO BIG, that by the time the 1968 Lady Kenmore (the one that was "Femininely Designed") was introduced, the "Vari-Flex" Agitator has made its debut in the the 1968 Lady Kenmore (because of (not surprisingly) it's flexibility).
The "Vari-Flex" was then featured in both the 1969-73 Lady Kenmores and the #2 Kenmores of the same era.
I hope that answer your question more clearly......
