I agree---the cycle dial looks similar to the '58 Frigidaire. I love the old 'preggers' Roto-Swirl agitator; just like the one on our 1960 KM. What a great find. Congrats!
TODAY'S FIND!!!

Hi All! I've been in West Virgina for the past week and have not had a chance to get over to Robert's to get some pictures of this beauty. Soon as I do though, I'll post 'em!
PS. I have talked to Robert (almost every day) and he is now using that machine as his main washer! Mark

UPDATE!!!
Roanoke Robert has replaced the belt and the pump just for good measure! Here is the machine washing a load of clothes. Cosmetically has not yet been restored, but is in process. Will update when complete. Mark

WOW!! What a change a lot of elbow grease can make! Glad to see it is getting there. BTW there should be two light bulbs in the console on this model,to light it up. Did you change them yet?
Glad to know Veg can sleep w/o nightmares now too!

put the bulbs in!
Finally found 10 watt light bulbs for the control panel. Really beautiful lit up but the camera won't show it since it flashes and I don't know how to turn the flash off........haven't read the book yet:~( Mark

Great Kenmore
What a great machine that was, I remember it well and it cleaned up nicely. When growing up the neighbor 2 houses up the street had that very same machine. I grew up with the matching dryer, and it had like 6 heat settings and an ozone lamp to boot, worked really well too. Enjoy it, the lighted dial looks great in the dark.
