Ha!

I suppose that works ... but I actually have distant cousin maned Wilma that I was thinking of ...
 
Wilma Westinghouse resides in my kitchen, could this be her cousin? LOL I do imagine her voice to be Wilma Flintstone's!
 
Wilma says ahhhhhh

She does have some surface rust around the door (and 2 dots in the tub)... but she also came with a brand new door boot!

Scott, I believe you unearthed a needle in a haystack as far as I'm concerned. I believe every Timeline washer I've seen collected here has had a blue background or area on the control panels. I don't think I"ve ever seen one with the golden/yellow area. And why do I comment, ponder about this? Because my parents' first dryer was a gas dryer that matched this washer exactly asnd I've not seen one like this since it went out the door February 1965. If someone does have one that's more golden/yuellow than aoll the blues I've seen around here, I'd love to see it and be gentle "corrected". I shall correct myself a bit here. I do believe Robert's TimeLine has the gold pattern in the control panel. But it appears this model's panel isn't backlit. Our dryer was also not backlit and had this style of lettering and such on our dryer. [this post was last edited: 6/25/2012-20:00]
 
Nerissa the Norge LOL

I love it. She looks like a Nerissa !!!! What Luck. "Great Scott" ~ ancient exclamation known only to old people like me.
 
Thanks!

All were single seller Ebay finds ... The story goes something like this:

The seller is slowing cleaning out is grandfathers house(the grandfather is now living with the seller). The grandfather used to tinker on EVERYTHING.. so any time he saw something at the side of the road ... or at another friend or relative's house ... he picked it up. All of these machines (along with piles and piles of other stuff) were crammed into this little old man's house/basement/garage. The seller is slowing cleaning and selling the items and giving ther $ to his grandpa for spending cash, lottery tickets etc).
 
And they are all pretty dirty ...

The Norge machines are especially dirty ... and it looks like maybe a squirrel or some other little beasty may have sought refuge in Nerissa at one time. I have cleand them all up some ... hope to take a few more pics soon. Ida the Imperial was pretty clean ... and was being used from time to time.
 
The 4 gals loaded into the house

In the corner of the dining room ... all move to the basement on Monday!

Nerissa gets a quick bath

While on break from remodel demolition... I decided to do a little more clean up ... I'm hoping the house paint on the cabinet will come off easily ... Luckily, it peals right off the porcelain top.
