Wish these were closer! I really like that particular agitator.

Dryer too

Is this around a '68, or '69?

With quite possibly my favorite Kenmore agitator.

The Vari-flex..in gold too! Not that Detroit is so far away from Cincinnati, but it's still a haul.

I see a big Moisture Sensor in that dryer!

Does that agitator clean good? I hardly see any vanes on it... At least it's not the swirly ramp-shaped one, other Kenmores used...

The Vari Flex agitator

on my Mama's 1971 Lady Kenmore washer worked great!  A while back RevinKevin had posted a clip demonstrating one of the Vari Flex agitators on one of his machines.  It really pulles the clothes thru the water.

That one in the picture has a club foot. Or a hammer-toe.

that dryer is not a 1969 model

In 1969 they revised the sensor pad in the dryer drum making it smaller and locating it at 4 o clock on the bulk head. To this day Whirlpool/Kenmore dryers still put the sensor in the same place on some of their dryers as they did in 1969....PAT COFFEY

Build Up

I see the cold water wash button depressed. I wonder if there's a little scrud waiting for clean up?

Awesome 900's!

Except for the agitator and maybe the soap dispenser lid, this is the set I sent to Gordon. Even the color. His has the Roto Flex agi. The paint on his is a bit better in condition but needed a bearing and seal job. Stranger yet was that I bumped into the customer who owned them quite by accident a while after they went to Charlotte and he gave me the folder with all the service records and receipts from when he purchased them. Those were sweet 900's! I even shot the Agitator Comparison video for my YouTube channel using it and a Kenmore with a Roto Swirl. Talk about causing a discussion!

Gordon has promised to fix the washer and show off the pair at some point. NUDGE! NUDGE!
