Its a Beatty WonderMatic! I had one once. Long story but its gone now. Solid porcelain tub machine. Should have a 3 vane aluminum agitator. Very cool find. It has a unique reversing motor tranny made by Beatty right here in Fergus Ontario.

Nice to see your Filter Flo in action Freddy!

I will hold a moment of silence for the old AEG. RIP you hard working old girl. That being said, I do love the new Miele and hopefully one day can meet her in person!

Brad, the transformation is just stunning!  I know how much work you put into this and I admire that dedication.  I want to come and see it in person soon. Eddy

Kevin, even if it has a straight vane... it will take a ramp agitator.  You can always put one in yourself.  It looks like a nice machine to have.

Very cool machines to add to your collection Leon! The balance ring in the Whirlpool looks more rounded than ours ever did. I love the slightly different mod's the Aussie machines have.

Congratulations John on getting these, I'm happy they are going to a good home.  One of these years I hope to come and visit you and see the warehouse in person! Eddy

I talked with Brian this morning (Northwesty) and since he's close by, he said he would check these out.  

On CL in Seattle.  You don't see many like these anymore. http://seattle.craigslist.org/sno/atq/3214291072.html

This is an incredible find!  The very first SQ automatic in such great shape.  It's amusing to see the stainless and porcelain portions reversed.  That tub is so pristine.  I look forward to a video too, Robert... especially of the interesting sequence of spray rinses this machine has.

I think this might be the oldest SQ automatic in existence!  Looking forward to more pics.  

Wow, what a trip Brad!  I'll have to come over and see it, I'll call you this weekend.

OOOO Leon What a minty find!  Twin tubs are so fun and "hands on".   I love the auto rinse feature on these too.

Yay for Beam designs What an interesting Easy with the pee-stream fill!  Gotta love the Spiralator, so white shiny and huge for the tub.

That price gives me an electric shock!

Thanks everyone for your comments on this latest find.  It's been a while for me to come across anything interesting.    Hi Peter, the GSW was General Steel Wares, a company that produced appliances and other steel wares located in Ontario.  They were around for a long time, producing the more...

I think the bilingual control panels came in the 1980's, then GE's counter to that was to use symbols which ended up being more confusing IMHO.   Rich, my trained eye tells me it spins at 550 rpm.  Approx,  LOL

It works Louis!  Here's a video of the first load I did in it.  Freddy, I will send you an email later today :-)  

And one for Bob of the control dial....
