Having a look at an old shop

[DADoES]

Yesterday afternoon I had opportunity to check out the remains of the Whirlpool dealer where I worked summers in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The owner's son contacted me about having a look at what's left before he clears it out. Unfortunately he sold the parts stock years ago except for a handful of items.

A NIB belt-drive baseplate. Dunno if it's standard capacity, large capacity, short or long centerpost.

 

[DADoES]

Two of these "horse-shoe" pumps, and another aluminum-body pump of some ilk.

 

[DADoES]

A couple lid handles.

 

[DADoES]

An agitator shaft.

 

[DADoES]

They were also a Zenith dealer. Couple NIB radios, and there's a NIB 8-track tabletop stereo. A console stereo (not new) and set of Allegro speakers. Lots of *old* TV test intruments.

 

[DADoES]

An 8-track recorder. There's a quad 8-track player. A somewhat newer tabletop stereo with cassette.

 

[DADoES]

A turntable. Also some rather old radios and a very old record player.

 

[DADoES]

A Westy canister. That's a newer Electolux to the right of it.

 

[DADoES]

Kirby.

 

[DADoES]

Fan.

 

[DADoES]

More fans. There's a 12" 2-speed Windmaker NIB. Anybody remember Windmaker fans?

 

[DADoES]

Zenith glasses, which I didn't take (not yet anyway).

I did get a full set of 8 RCA glasses. Not RCA Whirlpool, though, so they were for a TV promo, not appliances.

 

[DADoES]

He wants to sell this washer. I remember his Mom used it at the house in town (next to the store). It appears to be in good mechanical condition.

 

[DADoES]

And this dryer, which is a next-model-down sibling to the pink Imperial Mark XII in Colorado. It's not in very good cosmetic condition, the drum is rusted, and the pushbutton array doesn't all work.

 

[DADoES]

LSA7800 control panel (timer was backlit).

 

[DADoES]

Vintage cash register. There's also a *mechanical* adding machine, an electric adding machine, and a couple vintage typewriters.

 

[DADoES]

And this.

Which is NIB, never installed or seen the light of day.

And which is currently at my parents' house, awaiting transport to its new home.
