The two little tits... More than a mouthful... Oh never mind
Those were for a shoe rack, yes? Also, were those door cables that always broke and let the door fall down changed to this door hinge design? I can't remember the years that they used the nylon covered door cables...

Yes, the little indentations were the rear supports for the shoe rack, so that you could dry sneakers, etc., without tumbling and the blam, blam, blam noise we're all familiar with. Sears thought of everything on the Lady K's.
Speaking of those door cables, are they still available or NLA? My aunt's 1965 Kenmore 800 needs a set, and I want that machine taken care of, since the plan is for it to come live with me someday, and a matching washer found. The dryer was purchased new by my grandmother - her first and only dryer. She bought the pair, but the washer was replaced in the late '80s or early '90s. I'd like to reconstitute the set in her memory.

Door cables...
I don't know the status as of NLA or not but thankfully I have a decent stash.
Speaking of shoe racks, when did Whirlpool/Kenmore first introduce the shoe rack?

Pretty Lady. Elegant in white.
Did this dryer also have timed cycles?
Also, do you know if the beautiful finish is some kind of paint or is that some kind of baked-on finish. I have a couple of dryer drums where the paint is actually peeling off and I was wondering if one could repaint it.

Andy that is one of the best dryers ever
I have the electronic KA version John was kind enough to decide I needed it years ago. Its gas and runs smooth. In these WP's I have never seen a wrinkled load come out of them. And the ones with itellidry never shrink anything.
I have no idea how she kept that so nice all these years. Its amazing how appliances the same age can end up at opposite ends of the spectrum!
Hope your back is healing, lower back can be nasty! Since I have been using the teeter hang ups I am amazed at the return of flexibility. I remember throwing my back out many moons ago and 3 weeks after I still couldn't step or down off a curb in Boston without major major pain! Thats when I started back yoga and have never quit since.

As I recall
When we had this dryer you had the choice of auto dry using the sensor OR timed drying.
