Here We Go Again!

Another vintage Frigidaire washer.

This unit certianly will need some TLC to bring it back to life.

Oh, brother. I think this one has been on fleabay before. And look at the price, they musta seen the last auction--which I think had a machine in better condition.

Yikes! I think this should have been listed at $9.99 as well.

Judging by the pulsator (no metal disc; just rubber), I believe this is a WO-65-2, an overflow rinse model (vs. the double rinses on the WO-65).

Look at his other auctions, the Lafrance one features the item sitting on a pair of Westy Laundromats.

Who do we know in CT?

Now I remember this auction

IIRC the Westy paair featured in the La France auction sparked more interest than the Frigidaire.

What crust! $200 opening bid on a reserve auction for a barely working, in bad need of repair/restoration work washer. It would be more charitable if the man/woman paid a collector to haul it away. They have no shame some people.

A WO-65-2. These machines are so HEAVY! Imagine the charges to have it shipped--------------. Then those RARE parts. Yeah, I don't think I'd touch that without making sure I had a new torque spring, tub nut and seal assembly, and a set of bellows, etc. on the shelf ready to go! Would be a shame to pay so much and not be able to get it running! I know from expierience!
