I think I would be driving clear to GA with that perty thing somewhere. If the legs come off it sure would be easier. Pad the head real good and stash it anywhere you can.
Those old Kenmore's some of them are pretty good and some pretty much a boat anchor and you never know until you use them. I have a good one sitting on CL at the moment. It doesn't do a lot of fancy stuff but it seems like it would be a work horse. Looks like from the late 60s and early 70s to me. I'm still looking for a complete manual - my numbers don't come up quite right though. I found parts of a manual some where on line. I'm searching again.
