Robert, just curious, are you going to use the agitator in a different machine, or is it just for your collection?

It's one of the most effective yet gentle agitators ever designed, it would be a shame to not put it to use.

I am late But nice find's Robert I had that eureka in blue once .
Sorry about the washer wow you and Greg could have would have been twins !
I have the same problem with the dial not really the same, but the plastic piece fell apart I was wondering is there any part shop that you would know of, or any suggestions on this dial. I am afraid to even take it off because the darn thing might even get worse here is the dial.
The c part is dropping back and forth aaaah. yuck !

You could probably fit the pieces back together with CA glue. It can be purchased at any hobby shop. People routinely us it to build model airplanes, so it shouldn't be a problem with plastic parts.

Either you will have to glue it back together or find one off of another parts machine Darren, I did check my dial stash for it when you first posted the machine and I don't have that one.

It's just a play-toy Jeff, since it was one of the three agitators of the three washers we had growing up. I'll use it every once in a while for old time sake. I can't say its my favorite.

CONGRATS GORDON on taking this! Surely a first step in regaining your collection.

Have a good one,

STOP THE MADNESS!

Ugh, that harvest-gold agitator looks soooo terrible poking out of that beautiful PINK 57 Lady.

Hmmph.

C'mon Fred,

You mean you don't like Robert's idea of color coordination? LOL

We've been dealt a little challenge today but we're rolling with it....

The timer I have for this gem of a washer had a bent shaft, courtesy of a lousy packing job and a careless ebay seller a while back. I bought a whole box of misc. timers and they were all thrown together, unpacked. Naturally, this was the only one with apparent damage.

I tried to correct the bend, but said timer didn't cooperate and now I have a broken timer thanks to cheap soft metal (it's a 9-step process in admitting in here that you've broken something!!!).

To the rescue is a parts house I work with that had a new timer on the shelf in obsolete inventory. It's mine and on it's way, so now not only does this beaut Kenmore get a replacement timer, it gets a NEW one.

Hopefully I'll be able to take the part from the old timer and correct the spare used timer just in case....

YAY! (learned that term on here, btw....)

Colors...

Actually the gold agitator matches the gold trim on the panel from my angle. I don't think it's bad, but I love greens and golds... It's something I'd totally do (you haven't seen my white/green/gold frankensteined Hoover have you?)
