Reply # 21 Jukebox Philco

Had a thought yesterday that may be obvious to many. With all the beautiful cars Ford made, any wonder that they made equally beautiful washing machines, Philco (Ford).

Ted, is that the Philco you told me about or do you have another one, the Jukebox version? The Kelvi is spectacular. You have panels I've never seen before, esp. the 2001 Space Monolith Norge Dryer ;->

I can't pick just one......

I would have to say most any control panel that lights up...

Like these...

OR, failing that, you can always light it up yourself!

An ancient one

And by the way of soaking...

The most wonderful soaking I've ever done is with this!
The machine fills and then if you've selected the BIO timer the machine stops and soaks for the time pre-set until the last 2h when start low agitating and heating until 40°C circa. After BIO has finished the machine go on washing vigourously and heating over 40... until 60 or 90 depending on cycle selected.
This is possible on prewash and wash cycle both.

The most effective stain removal way I've never tried indeed!

I've always been partial to these...

This one gets my vote, although there is tight competition between this 1958 and the 1959 posted (above) by Ken.

I wish the webmaster, or eddy would post their beautiful 1959'ish, SQ. Greg also has a "to kill for SQ pair". arthur

I'm going to have to vote for the late 60's early 70's Filter Flos, the brushed aluminum does it for me!

Norge, anyone?

So I'm getting carried away, but we can't forget about the utilitarian dashboard of the '64 Norge...I love the lighted dial with "see-thru" arrow to ensure the proper cycle...

63 KM's?

You like the 70 series, Gordon?

 

[pdub]

1963 Custom Imperial's

I have always lusted after these!

 

[pdub]

1963 Imperial's

Although these plain ole Imperial's will have to do for now!

 

[kenmoreguy64]

You like the 70-Series Gordon? (Asks Kenny)

Um, YEAH! Especially in COPPERTONE! That is a dandy set you have there my friend!
