KV-1212 Alan, i have this exact set in the storage building. I got this from a friend in Roanoke, it was his growing up. I had this same model as a kid as well, and they are work horses. I have always been impressed with the quality of the older Sony and Panasonic/Matsishitu/National products...

Thanks for posting this Robert. I have this very model in the very same color. It's always cool to see Hoover laundry literature pop up. In fact I think a lot of these DDD's are fascinating.   Thanks!   -Tim

Plastic in Wp BD's I thought the suspension rod balls were also plastic?     -Tim

Liberated These HAVE to based on the Westinghouse Spacemates... it's a handsome look for them though.

All for tonight You come back tomorrow!

All Buttoned Up Everything went together nicely, thanks to the parts machine. Only thing left to do now is water test and adjust the plunger cable to keep air out.    

Fresh Parts... Nom Nom Nom The new diverter plunger next to the rotted plunger. Word to the wise, flush your A-50 out after use!   New out of the package thanks to John Lefever's stash-o-parts...    

Awww it's so Cute One of the things I said I would do for Kevin is get one of the A-50's going. I brought a diverter valve with me and set out to fix the little guy from our last washer party, in which it got a very interesting modification that warranted it's ow instruction manual.   One of...

And Then! I was led to this. It looks like the Unimatic had been drinking again. Here she is flat-faced on the floor after peeing all over the place...    

1st Order of Business There was this poor, tired Maytag DG608 dryer that "needed a blower wheel".... Yeah right!   This machine was a victim of my ADHD, but it's lack progress gave way to other great things. I think at some point I ended up wearing parts of it?   Dear DG606, I'm sorry :(

The Westinghouse SpaceMate So much work went into this machine it was truly amazing. John, Jeff, Nate, Ralph, myself all had our hands in this machine. Nate and Jeff fixed the timer, John unlocked the seized motor and pump, Jeff and I dismantled the tub and installed the boot, Ralph and crew...

I'm confused "An agitator with the set screw can be substituted for those held in place by the O ring on the agitator shaft and the O ring does not have to be removed to use an agitator with the set screw." I was also under the impression that agi's with set screws could be used, why can...

Oh Yeah... I Forgot to Mention... I was approached by a gentleman in a purple get-up just after I stepped off the plane with some kids with some bad spray-tan. They were looking for information on the great Wash-In of 2012. Said something about trying to reunite with some lost family, it was a...
