Well that is a step in the right direction for you Jason, but I'm guessing, it's just not the same. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you that the real thing appears soon. |

No, it's not the same as finding an original 1970 Kenmore 800. That IS the holy grail of Kenmores. |

It's pretty cool how the WP/KM relationship has lasted. To think next year it will be 60 yrs since WP built Sears very first automatic. |

And THAT belt-driven automatic had a production run of almost 40 years! That's alot of grind-click-clunk! Kenmore: The VW Beetle of appliances. It wasn't the fastest thing in the laundry room but they sold millions of 'em. |

Jason, odn't you remember seeing that model photographed when Austin, Glenn, and Venus met Jamie & his mom in Houston this summer and htey went to the Great Indoors? Not to be splitting hairs, but I wouldn't consider something TOL if it had an agitator-mounted FS dispenser. That's just not the Sears way for TOL lol.
