I run a metal recycling yard and this is what some one threw out in the big pile. We rescue them all the time.

Sorry pic didn't rotate :-(

One man's trash, is another woman's treasure!!
What do you do with them??

Oooooooh, if that's running you will LOVE the free-motion quilting! :) My Kenmores are my favorite quilting machines until you get to full bed size - after that, I need the bigger throat on my Singer 15.

These Kenmores from the late 60's/early 70's are GREAT machines and I hope it will take just a little bit of nuthin' to get it running again. :)

Well, keep some and give others away.

That is almost identical to the one I got in 1975. I still have it and it still works great.

That was my first machine! I still have it and my daughter uses it now.

Why would anyone throw out a beautiful machine like that? Have they never heard of Goodwill Stores?
