Guess what I brought home today!

[westytoploader]

Glenn, you're not alone on a new washer "project"...I picked something up as well! It works perfectly and has a MINT interior with no hard water stains or buildup, but it has a slight water leak and needs a good cleaning, especially in the mechanical workings.

Hints: The water leak is NOT pump or fill-flume related if that's any indication. Avocado Green, 1968. And it's quite a find for Texas if you ask me!

Will post the reveal soon!

[appnut]

Re: My Guess:

Hey! Austin, I'm going to take a guess at your newest find. I think that it might be another GE Washer. I'm not going to go into details as to why I'm guessing that Brand, but time will tell.

Peace and Happy "Being a Sneak"
and Happy Halloween Wishes to all, Steve

I got a few details earlier this evening. I can think of three possible leak sources.

Guessing Washer

Westytoploader did you get a Westinghouse Laundomat? If so you lucky dog.

Austin, I am going to guess a Maytag as well. The leak is coming from a hose inside the cabinet. The machine is an A408?

Come on Austin, give it up, or I'll start a thread
about what I brought home recently

[swestoyz]

Did a Maytag find its way home, Austin? Or will it be a GE?

 

[westytoploader]

I'll be posting pictures of the reveal later on this afternoon...I already have a GE, so it's not a Filter-Flo!

 

[jasonl]

Is it a....

Westytoploader? From 1968?

 

[jasonl]

Well??????

 

[appnut]

I know the brand, but I"m not spillin' the beans.

 

[bostonwash]

I can smell the tension in this room

ep, no, I, I,, just need to, take a shower.
But it would be nice to know that what it is.

 

[pulsator-power]

Not a GE. Maytag too boring. BORING! I vote for a '68 Frigidaire
Rollermatic.

[bethann]

You little fart! Post the picture, would ya? TAP TAP TAP!

 

[DADoES]

All I can say at the moment is a friend of my grandmother had a very similar machine, if not this exact model ... but not in avocado.

 

[jasonl]

If you want to tease, you got to please.

 

[swestoyz]

Austin, I woke up this morning, knowing that if I went to bed early enough, you would have posted the picture later in the evening. I'm beginning to think maybe this machine is a figment of your imagination?

[Unimatic1140]

Well, were all waiting on pins and needles Austin!

 

[jasonl]

He's at school

He's at school laughing at all of us. I only live 3.5 hours away from him. Maybe I can do some recon and post the pics myself LOL. Just kidding.

 

[lavamat_jon]

Hahaha.

If only you guys knew ;-).

My lips are sealed.

[DADoES]

I've had the details since Saturday evening (unless I was told wrong). But there must be some reason for the looooonnnggg anticipatory delay, and I'm not gonna spoil it.

 

[westytoploader]

Well, it's not a figment of my imagination...

It's a KENMORE of my imagination! In lovely Avocado Green, complete with the "marble" self-cleaning lint filter (the leak I need to fix is at a hose that connects to the filter if that gave any indication) and hidden controls!

YAY for Alphabet-Cycle machines!
