Saginaw area here.
I also grew up with a Kenmore 800 with the Super Roto Swirl. Ours was a 1965 model in white, with the black agitator. The original machine is long gone, but I was able to get my hands on the same model down in Fort Wayne many years ago. That machine was too far gone to get running again, but I did use several parts in the restoration of a few newer machines. I salvaged the illuminated console and the lid before the rest of the machine was given up to scrappers. My current project is to put the console on a shelf, with a light of course, and have it as a display piece in my home office. The lid, with the operating instructions facing out, will hang below it. We're just completing a move, and I have a million other things to get done, but this is one of the most exciting for me to get to. When it's ready I'll be sure to post a picture. In the meantime, here is a little display table with my toy/small washer collection. The 800 console will be above these on the wall.
