At the Minneapolis wash-in earlier this summer Gary told me about a friend of his who had an older Kenmore he wanted to get rid of. Having been on the hunt for parts as the 59 was under restoration I was interested. Gary gave me his number, I called him and discovered this was actually an old friend of mine who used to play piano for me when I sang opera at an Italian restaurant in Mpls. We still see each other out and about-small world!
So I have been meaning to pick it up but finally did today. Last weekend when Ben was in town we ran into my friend who had it at the Eagle and Ben asked him if it had a dial, he said nope, just lots of push buttons. Ben and held our breath as we wondered if it was a 59 or 60! Well there is a dial, but the machine is very nice none the less, havn't tested it yet but with a couple of swipes of 409 it came out this clean....
