looking for Older 60's Whirlpool

[70series]

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?

That 1961 model is definitely my favorite Whirlpool.

Since it appears this has turned into a Whirlpool Thread here's my pic. I rescued these last August.

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.

Are those '65s your set?  Nice!  Can you post closeups of the panels?

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.
