72-73 Kenmores Hi Joe, thanks for posting pictures of your cool machines, these were very good fully featured machines when new actually having nearly all the options of the TOL Lady Kenmore models. If you post the serial #s we can tell you actually when they were built. Also myself or many others here on AW can answer about any question you might have with these machines.

That is a handsome looking set. I would say these were 1972 models, but as John said you should post the model numbers so we can tell you for sure. | ||

Looks like my Aunt's machines
They bought all new matching harvest gold Kenmore washer, dryer, range, refrigerator when they bought their first house, which was probably about 1973. It's been too many years to swear to it being the exact model and year, but it's pretty durn close.
Am I right that it has a white enamel tub and a harvest gold 2-way agitator? I know there's a dispenser externally, but was there a softener dispenser perched on top of the agitator? The last time I saw my aunt's washer, the tub was completely rust stained from well water, but otherwise it was still going strong in the mid 80s. No idea how much longer it went after that. | ||

Yeah dryer timer knob broke (plastic). Used a spare to get it going. Got the JB weld to re-form when I get time. Probably just form the shaft, metal line it, and fill it all in around. | ||

Mostly white basket, Rotor Swirl agitator. Yeah, that is a white out cap I used to plug the dispenser hose. | ||

Nice capacity on that washer
Nice capacity on that washer, I wonder when WP/Kenmore came out with the larger capacity wash basket. It makes the capacity on my Kenmore 800 look pale by comparison. Your model's capacity looks great!!!
