In late december I purchased a GE combo in Indiana. The owner had taken it out of a mobile home that was being torn down. He stated that the home had been abandoned for about seven years and if you all remember the machine was very dirty and looked like it had been beaten to hell and back...

Thanks Yes, it was an ebay find. I had never seen one in pink and I have a model 95 and 85 in white so I thought why not get a pink one also. I will change the gearbox oil when I get it home and give it a good cleaning and polishing. Thanks for the info about the colors. I knew someone on...

I never knew that Ironrite made machines in any color but white except for the woodgrained cabinet models. Thought this one was kinda odd to find in pink with the matching chair no less. I had to have it so I bought it!

Here is a pink GE kitchen with cabinets. Comes with the refrid. and freezer and cooktop. Says make offer......might be able to get it cheap. http://stlouis.craigslist.org/atq/2152167820.html

Well............. I happen to love the Sears detergent. It does a very good job and I've been very pleased with the performance for the few years I have used it. My only complaint would be I wish that my local Sears would still carry the bucket instead of the box. I usually buy the 240 load...

Combo built in............ Its not so much the placement of the oven I am worried about as much as the way they have it built in to the wall. Doesn't look like it was very easy to get at for service and I think we all know that the GE combo wasn't known for its "years of trouble free use". As...

Its located in Winston-Salem It was the one that was on craigslist a few weeks ago. The economy model. Its been back and forth with the seller to find a time that she and I would be available to get it. I might just end up hiring a moving company or driving down and getting it but just...

Hey everyone. I bought a duomatic in NC and was wondering if anyone lived close by who could help me out with picking it up. Drop me an email. I will pay you for your time and gas. Dave

one timer Sorry.........didn't mean to make that plurel. It was late and I wanted to post some pics of the combo. I am going to have to go through the whole machine and check everything before I even try to fire it up. Does anyone have any hints of trouble spots for these machines that I...

and another Here is a pic of the top of the machine...

Some more pics of this machine......but after a good cleanin Here are more pics of the machine after it was cleaned up. Timers are frozen and the washer smells but I always enjoy a challenge.

Thanks Thank you for answering my question Kevin. I'm pretty new to Kenmores and just wanted to know. Davy

Hmmmmm Does anyone have a pic of what this would look like with the control cover in the up position? What kind of agitator did this model use?

odd Seems odd that Westinghouse basically railed against top loaders in the 50's just to start making them in the 60's. Someone must have had a change of heart.

well............. I like the aqua and pink but I don't know how long I could live with it before it started to get old. The aqua kitchen looks like the saturation of the colors as been ramped up a little. I'd be interested to see what shade of yellow these machines came in.

Does anyone know if and when Westinghouse offered different colors for there machines? I was just wondering if the 1955 twins would have been available in colors? I heard from a friend that he had once seen a dryer in blue. Any help would be great. Davy

Well............. I agree that its probably not going to be cheap BUT if we don't all get together and do something then it won't be to long before all our Westinghouse slant fronts become ornamental because a lack of replacement boots.

Cool.......... Jetcone I will take you up on one of those for the Duomatic I just purchased. As for Westinghouse I found a company in Ohio that does small runs of rubber goods and I have contacted them to see how much we would be talking. As soon as I get some real numbers I will add them to...

Question. I have a 1955 Westinghouse slant-front set as well as a few Duomatics and it seems that everyone who has these machines is in need of boots. They are getting harder and harder to find and to be honest the ones that are found aren’t in the best of condition. Even NOS parts are...

That would be me...... I emailed the seller on Tuesday and purchased the machine. I am going down there sometime later next week to pick it up after I visit my family in Ohio. I will provide some pictures after I pick it up. Any special precautions I should know about for moving one of...
