This washer does fill, agitate, drain and spin as it's supposed to, but needs the spin tube bearings (??) because it makes noise when spinning.

Please contact John at johnsport3687@sbcglobal.net if interested.

And now the dryer........

it's actually in pretty good shape, though some installed a "on/off" switch. I believe the timer is bad.

The back and the lint filter. Also, someone (who knows why) cut the rear panel.

The build date on the dryer.

Again, if anyone is interested or would like to make any offer for either of these, please contact John at johnsport3687@sbcglobal.net.

Thanks!

Kevin, actually the high and low buttons are water level buttons not speed buttons.

Real cool kenmore - I love the back opening lid design. I think it was the last year they made them that way.
Best Of Luck

Kevin no added an on/off switch to the dryer.....

that is an on/off switch for the gas burner. If you look at the owners manual in the archive here for the 1952 Whirlpool Gas Dryer...you will see that it has the same switch....PAT COFFEY
