Ok, I've been in this predicament many times when I still lived with my mom and dad. In my case, it was the necessity to bring home vintage TV sets. Granted I was a little kid when I first showed interest in electronics, so it didn't seem unreasonable that I wanted to evolve in the hobby and...

In Hartford CT. Any ideas what year this one might be? 1977? http://hartford.craigslist.org/app/3142661530.html

Great photos so far! Some very impressive appliances you guys have. Norgeway, I especially like that '75 Frigidaire electric range. I'd put that in my kitchen right now if I had one like it. pnub, that's a great pair of 1-18's. What year are those? I never saw them with the viewing glass...

I've been on the search for a matched pair of Maytag center dials in shaded Avocado since I bought my 1st house over 2 years ago. I'm currently using my 1973 Frigidaire 1-18's as the main machines for over 1 year now and so far those have been working great. While I really enjoy those, I've...
