Nice haul, Jimmy!

Even though that Frigidaire dryer is BOL, or close, I think it's my favourite of this batch.

Great Haul Jimmy! I know the feeling about needed to stop, must stop, can't stop.

Thanks Robert. Anything here that you want or that interests you? Speak up dont be shy! I certainly cant keep all of these for myself........The green 1-18 Frigidaire dryer in fact I picked up to part out if need be. Parts for those are just starting to get a little scarce.....

Re: The Hotpoint

First time I've seen a 30" range with a deep-well cooker. Also explains the separate broiler to the left of the main oven. Nice looking stove!

Jimmy,
Incredible finds! Can't wait to see what is in the van. I am sure that you just did not have the energy left to unload it from moving everything else around!
I just love your Hotpoint Range. Great looking! The color coded burners are just too cool!
I also love the Speed Queen gas dryer. My Grandmother had this exact model. It was a great dryer. My favorite thing to do was open the cover and watch the gas burner ignite! Do you know how long Speed Queen made there gas dryers with the burner on top? What a great design, for those of us who like to watch!
Thanks for sharing!
Brent

Jimmy! Your Hotpoint stove has all of its color buttons in the surface units and its original bake element! That's a real find. Hotpoint improved that model greatly over the previous year's model. It had one wide door, the narrow oven and the small broiler next to it. I guess you were not supposed to try to broil in it while baking in the oven next to it. They tried to hang on to the deepwell in the 30" range and it just was not feasable. Another year or two and they had their first wide ovens in both the 30 and 40 inch ranges.

The turquoise dryer is the mate to my white washer.

The timer on the WH dryer shows how they were designed to operate on 110 volts. The timer goes up to 2 hours. You selected Low heat which energized one heating element and just gave it lots of time. That model must have been a year or two newer than my mom's 65 Laundromat with the recessed side swing door, but it looks like a fairly close match.

How do you identify the oven element as original? And would
a built in oven have the same type element? Thanks

Westinghouse Clothes dryer

The Westinghous Clothes dryer is a 1966 model. My Grandmother had that same dryer and the matching top loading washer. At the time I thought it was the biggest washer I had ever seen.

Congrats on your lastest finds!

Jimmy!

What a BEAUTIFUL way to fill up a driveway!!! Mark

Original Element

I have been wrong before, but if I am not mistaken, the element in the Hotpoint oven is a universal replacement, used on Frigidaire 40 inch models.

[trainguy]

Jimmy, please hit me up when you need a second set of hands!

My father, who worked for Hotpoint referred to the H in the emblem as the "FLYING H".
Don't know if that was official or not.
