And BEST of all its a Suds-Saver model, you might be able to get an Energy-Star sales tax credit.

Which form do I use for that credit?! I’m in contact with the seller to see if they are interested in shipping these. They are supposed to let me know today. Any shipping ideas? I used Uship last time and was highly disappointed. But that was the particular company I chose to use.
Great Set!
Oh, Lady be Good.. to Me!..

Totally agree. Those are beautiful. I would think any of us would be proud to have those in our laundry area. They bring back a lot of fond memories.

Update!
I made a deal with the seller and they agreed to let me arrange to have them shipped to Texas. Now to find a shipper. Has anyone tried the company in Kenny (goat farmers) link? I’ve used uship before and had a bad experience with the company I chose after reading many good reviews. They didn’t wrap the machines like they said they would and beat, scratched, and chipped them to death. I’ve got a bid on uship and maybe will find a better company.

another option.
I've never used the YT magazine link, but have known people who successfully had items shipped that way.

Thanks for the shipping options! I’m waiting on a quote from a company called pack n send and also put the info on uship and may try a different company through them. I’ll keep everyone posted.

Thanks for your help.

Pack n Send
So the bid from pack n send to ship this washer and dryer came in at $1,250.00 plus the value of the machines. After I finished choking I sent them packing and signed on with uship and McNair Express Delivery, LLC for a more reasonable amount. I’ll keep everyone posted on how everything works out .

Those would be 1966 machines with those doorhandles.I have always used Transit Systems they do it all and are very reasonable.

Yes they are later build editions of the 65 model, hopefully it will be the new stationary drum back machine, WP continued to build this 65 model dryer through most of 1966 so customers that bought the washer still had a chance to buy the matching dryer.
The 66 LKM dryers were all stationary back models.

Yes they are later editions of the 1965 model. This dryer was built in 1966 according to the serial number and the washer in 1967. The dryer does have the “new” stationary bulkhead. Not only am I excited to have these I’ve never seen an actual sudsaver in all the years I worked on washers and dryers. My aunt was the only one I knew who had one but they had chunked it before I ever remember seeing it. Replaced it with a circa 1990 Lady Kenmore that she never liked because she said it was way too rough on their clothes.

The Ladies have been picked up and I should have them in a week or so. This shipper already looks a lot more promising than the last one I used. Looking forward to tinkering with the first sudsaver I’ve ever owned.
Congratulations Melvin! That is just great you got them picked up, I'm so glad I ran into those by accident on Facebook and posted them! They are going to a great new home.
