Wow!! Congratulations!! What an awesome acquisition! And in California! (land of no basements) I saw several sets of these growing up and I remember the washer has the basic belt drive cycle sequence -- wash, neutral drain, spin, spray rinses, deep rinse, neutral drain and final damp dry spin...

Rare Blackstone wringer washer with hydractor agitator...

such a cute little washer When I was a kid our neighbor had one of these with the control dial in the center back of the cabinet. The control dial was gold and black, the same dials as were on my mom's full size Laundromat. While I'm sure that size machine was better than nothing and did...

during the drain/spin it is supposedly to keep the pump clear. when the pump shuts off water accumulates in the sump and then when the pump turns back on there is a forceful gush of water, rather than a continuous dribble.

Yay Kev! You find the best deals! Thomas, grab all your laundry and I'll grab mine and meet you at Kevin's!!

Happy Birthday Joe ...and thanks for sharing your uplifting, hopeful story. I'm happy this year was good to you.

1950's stainless steel My folks bought a newly built house in Pittsburgh in 1958. The builder had an option for a built-in electric cooktop and wall oven, which my parents took. It was a stainless steel Hotpoint set installed in pink metal cabinets. My mom was in heaven and relegated her...

Ho! Ho! Ho! That's great! Too bad that Westy doesn't have colored lighted controls.

Easyspindry I didn't know Speed Queen FL's don't allow you to pause and add an item to the machine once it has started (without draining all the wash water out.) That seems stupid, especially because I believe all other brands do allow you to add an item on most cycles. (There are a few cycle...

belt slipping?

Nice warm spot for kitty. When I was a kid our orange tabby would often climb into our 55 Frigidaire Filtrator dryer to take a nap as it stayed warm for a long time after use. More than once my mom threw clothes into it and an orange streak came flying out.

Congrats! What wonderful Frigidaire finds! I can hardly believe the treasures popping up this week.

Wow, congrats Eddy! That has to be the find of the year! Great cosmetic shape and hopefully not too much heartache to get running again.

love that LG agitator Nice video! IMHO that is the coolest agitator around today and gives great turnover and wash action in your video. But the amount of water used! I wouldn't have a modern top loader for that reason, but they are fun to watch.

Definitely look like Speed Queen solid tub machines. Being SCTV is Canadian, perhaps these are Huebsch, which may be why the control panels do not look familiar. Look like top of the line models.

My LG 3570 locks the door as soon as you press "start." When you hit "pause" the machine stops and the door unlocks. You can unlock and open the door anywhere in the cycle. The door does not unlock during spin until the tub stops rotating. Also, as others noted, when it has heated the water it...

Brilliant job! Both inside and out! I've always thought that model was one of the most gorgeous of the Westy slat-front machines.

In southern California one can line dry most all of the year. While not working during this pandemic, I've had more time on my hands and have been regularly line drying whites. Fortunately for us, the way the winds have been blowing the smoke from these terrible fires has not impacted coastal...

Wonderful condition, but they forgot to mention in the ad if all the parts of this beauty actually work. I noticed the wear on the aluminum agitator where it was submerged in water with detergent and bleach. Top of agitator is still shiny new looking.

very clever, Robert
