'66 Whirlpools

These are one of my faves in my collection -- wouldn't part with them for anything but they are always available for a showing along with many other makes if and when someone wants to venture to the rugged and beautiful Redwood Coast of northwestern California!

I am not entirely sure of the features; it looks like a fairly basic model. I think that design of control panel was on more than one model series. However this is an MOL 1972 model with a manual clean (Magic Mix) filter. I never saw one in person, but a Harvest Gold version of this model was featured in the original Halloween movie. The matching dryer to that one had the full width door, which I thought was cool.

Good Luck,
James
 
Glad to see you used my washer in that montage of washers (reply #16). I have that one on my YouTube channel washing and showing off the waterfall filter. The poor thing needs bearings but still...

Todd, that matched set you have is absolutely STUNNING! What was the story with those?

My 1 cent

it would be 2 cents if I had the dryer.

I found this leaky rusty old thing shoved in a corner of a basement for 30 years, now fully restored and my daily driver.

I had told myself...

NO MORE APPLIANCES !

So what was I doing looking in the first place? I couldn't pass them up.

They had been in the same house since new. The house sold and the new owners were "remodeling" so out these went. I have the manuals, receipts, etc. from when they were new. I don't have a money shot to post but will take some tomorrow.

Pete posted literature of my dream set, 1968 Avocado Whirlpool Imperial Mark XII model LTA 9925 w/ Suds-Miser, and the matching electric dryer, all with the faux woodgrain front.  RevvinKevin has my dream set in his collection IIRC.
 
So does anyone know where any of these are for sale? I need one with the lint catcher brush... I have look at one person machine on here and it was not quit what I wanted.. But I may still end up with it anyway. These things seem really tough to find!

Ask a question if anyone knows. Why do some have white agitators and some have black? Is there something with coloration that ment different models or years or features? Or is it just random and does not mean anyting.
