that explanes the easy-style agitator,the earliest T/L westies i have
seen in person were from 1977-several of those,must have been a good
year for westinghouse.

odd

Seems odd that Westinghouse basically railed against top loaders in the 50's just to start making them in the 60's. Someone must have had a change of heart.
