WP Porcelain Top WP may have offered them but they are pretty rare around here, I've only seen one whereas all of the Maytags of the 70's I think had them. My Highlander does not have a porcelain top, but it's the only Maytag I have seen like that.   I've often wondered how well powder-coat...

Gordon... Fresh out of the Box LOL, a little late to this, had to get the camera and get this. Here is a less tired Gordon before running the Belt Drive gambit. Hopefully this photo does a little more justice :)   ...And of course, our wonderful host!   -Tim     [this post was last...

Andy's Baby Also before the wash-in so much work went into so many machines. One very special machine was Andy's (Redcarpetdrew) 1966 Lady (&^%$#) Kenmore. He has other nice words for her, but this machine was reborn just a day before the event. I hope Andy is very proud of this machine, I know...

The Party View and Suds Here's another little short cell-phone vide of the party. There are more malicious suds to be found here as well! <iframe width="640" height="480" src="" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Agitator Head Oh come on Kevin, who could resist a Penta-Swirl? Gonna post some vids, beware the audio is horrible! 1st up the SQ roar. This is the machine that was found in the Fresno junkyard by John and Smitty and that me and Kevin picked up in December 2010. Some other shots too like the...

SOH = Slow on Heat "<a name="start_39835.590033">it was never as durable or as fast as the WP built dryers."</a>   Things I can honestly say from my standpoint on these dryers: The timers seem to be fickle and the machine is slow outright. I've been pleased with the overall performance, and...

SOH/Big Load <a name="start_39835.590014">"In 1975 the "big door" Stream-of-Heat dryers were introduced."</a>   This is interesting, I have 2 dryers made in 1976. One is a CDE407 and the other is a DE408. Both made in 76, one is a big load and one is a halo. Did the 2 types overlap for a...

So this thing is for sale at a local store, what is it? It this a "Match-all" dryer or is there a matching washer? Any idea as to the age?   -Tim

Nudge Nudge Speed Queen: Bring back these colors and I will buy a machine from you.   -Tim

I have never seen anything like this, what year were these made? It looks very interesting, any members have one of these?   -Tim

Easter Egg Landry Hunt Yeah, you just gotta go collect it, that's what makes laundry day fun. OR.... fill it with easter eggs in the yard and invite the neighborhood children over later for a hunt.   Some banter that would surly follow...   "It was a terrible washer, but a wonderful random...

The D-D-D-Doctrinator I'm so going bankrupt this year... lol

Dispense-All Doctrine That's a nice scan, very colorful, I wish GE still put this kind of effort into their machines. Redcarpetdrew (Andy) is going to die when he sees this one.   Thanks for posting, downloading these now, so can't comment on the water shot just yet...   -Tim

TheSamba Lol I know, I spend almost as much time there as I do here!   Great resource for a VW lover.   Some day I'll have my own...     -Tim

VW Filter I've only seen them documented under the front tank on some SB convertibles, I can't imagine the factory putting them in there and the fire hazard that creates, but not to say they didn't I suppose. I know of the grommet, I think one solution for that was to enlarge the hole and put...

Crispy Bugs "<a name="start_39621.587491">no modifications to it except for relocating the fuel filter to the front of the car."</a>   Such a WONDERFUL idea. This is something that EVERY bug owner should do. Period...   (Warning: Rant coming!) Fuel and fire don't mix. VW never put filters...

KDI-17 Hey John, I would be interested in as much as I could fit in the car when I come up. I'd really like to get my 17 portable going, but as you saw from the pics, it's a little hairy. Call me later if you get a chance.   -Tim

Familiar John, don't you have this very unit in the warehouse?   -Tim

Bob You're back! and on the cusp of 10,000 posts! i was wondering why I haven't heard you around in a while. -Tim

Hmm Personally, I'm more interested in the A704, this is a new one to me. Could the actual failed capacitor (leaked, dried out) be an issue here? I'm also watching this space as I have an old HOH electronic dryer as well. It works fine, but I don't know as much yet about the HOH electronic...
