Hi Sarah I just recently replaced the felt seals on my Frigidaire Gallery stacked unit(it looks like the same model as yours) and I used acetone to remove the old adhesive left behind when I pulled the originals off. The acetone does seem to effect the paint, though in my case it wasn't enough...

"Im not seeing the rear window on that Dodge" That little window is visible in reply #1.

Those things turn up on eBay with some regularity, but John(combo52)recommends using a pair of vice grips clamped on to the edge of the brake assembly and then whacking the side of the vice grips with a plastic hammer to knock the brake loose. He works on these machines for a living and says...

She pulls off the look very well, but the guy she's with could use some work. There's nothing about his appearance that says 50's to me and his epic failure detracts from her successful effort. Of course there's always the possibility that he isn't even trying to pull off a fifties look and was...

Well crap. I guess it would help if I let you know I searched for it on eBay. That’s where I found them.

The ND on that bearing likely stands for New Departure. I just did a search for that part number (77505C25) and found a few candidates listed. You should take a look.

Excellent work so far!!! I especially like all the attention to detail. Very few restorations are taken to this level. My parents had a similar washer when I was growing up, but it was gone when I came home from the Army. I'll have to check in on this thread and see how it turns out.

I told Corey I'd post a drawing of the tub light lens so he'd have the dimensions to work from if he wants to make a copy, so this is it. Some dimensions that can be arrived at by doing a little math have been left off. The original is drawn to 1/1 scale and isn't very large so I didn't want to...

I have one of those clips that came with one of my Juniors many years ago. I’ve never used it but I always imagined it would mount to the underside of a kitchen cabinet and the mixer would hang from it. The hook is likely meant to fit into the handles recess. There doesn’t seem to be any other...

Beautiful machines and in a rare color. Hopefully you’ll be able to get the washer fixed, but truthfully it would help if we knew what part of Florida you were in. It’s a big state and without more information it’ll be difficult for any Florida members to refer you to someone.

Hey Joseph.......while hunting down the new part so I could get a photo of it I found a used one that I pulled out of an old A700 that was covered in corrosion and beyond saving. If you want it I’ll send it to you. You can use the AW message system to send me a shipping address.

They’re definitely injection molded plastic. Here’s a photo of the new one where you can see the raised detail that would be heated and bent to lock it in place. Of course one doesn’t have to install it that way. Clear sealant would work too.

The early 806 and 906 machines had lint filters with stainless steel tops, and they do look nice. I don’t recall what year they discontinued them, but once in a great while one will turn up on eBay. That’s where I found the one I installed on my parents 806.

I have several Maytag washers with tub lights and all of them were seemingly installed the same way. They all look as though heat was used to soften the edge that extends down to the underside of the opening and then it was bent over in a few places to secure it in place. No sealant was used on...

Thanks for making the effort. I’ll keep my fingers crossed.

Thank you Jeannine![this post was last edited: 11/9/2019-21:35]

I’d really like to get my hands on that washer. Is there anyone with a facebook account that would be willing to contact the seller for me to see what he or she wants for it? As I said earlier, it’s the same model I grew up with and I’ve been looking for one for a long time.

That’s the same model Frigidaire washer I grew up with. I’ve been looking for one for years, but I’m not going to create a facebook account to get it. The fact that it’s so far away doesn’t help either.🙁

Long Time Postum Lover I’m in my mid fifties and have been a Postum fan since I was a kid. I love the stuff, especially during the winter months. I currently have five jars in the cupboard and Postum memorabilia on the counter. For as long as I can remember I have had trouble getting it to...
