I think that this is the dryer that Will classiccaprice posted when he saw it at the thrift store a couple of weeks ago... unless there are two of these lurking around the Tidewater area! |

Where is our resident Pro All Things Kenmore when you need him? With 2.5 hoours on the timer, would this be a 120 volt machine? I'd be afraid of lots of wear on the clothes if that time was needed, but I'd learn to live with it back when some homes still only had 120.
Gordon knows it all and hopefully will spot this question-- Thanks Mark |

A440 -Brent, how old were you when you convinced your friend's dad to clean the lint filter and vent? What a great story. So did your friend's dad employ you to be Mr. Fixit? LOL! I wonder if they read any manual that came with it? :-)
I'm not sure when they decided to buy new, but the 60's especially had so many choices of cool looking appliances, with new features and styling, it would be hard to resist buying new. I love the stories like yours where someone remembers the exact washer, dryer,dishwasher...I can't remember much other than we had Hotpoint and GE products. Thanks for yet another childhood memory story. |
