MODERN PARTS HOUSE IN PARMA, OHIO - ROAD TRIP PICS

[soberleaf]

love these books

i collect them

 

[soberleaf]

found a drain pump seal

for my 1965 rollermatic. took pump off and it's gravity drain for now but wanted a seal anyway.

 

[soberleaf]

here's a strainer that fits the g.e. mobile maid pump ho

had to destroy the original getting impeller off so i was glad larry had another one for me !

 

[soberleaf]

agitator nut

for a rollermatic! a nut for a nut! and i do go nuts over this stuff!

 

[soberleaf]

gaskets!

he's got em! this is for a d&m kelvinator or sears kenmore

 

[soberleaf]

look at that

old agitator! love it!

 

[soberleaf]

one of the main things

i went for

 

[soberleaf]

a new motor for

the 1966 g.e. mobile maid i got from matt (everythingold)

 

[soberleaf]

this guy has got it all!

never seen so much stuff in a parts supply house! and never seen so much old stuff! he's got motors out the ying yang!
gaskets, seals, timers, rows and rows of timers! you name it!

so i would strongly suggest if you need something give him a call! i mean i never thought i'd find an impeller for the modern maid or a water bellows for my frigidaire!

they even fed me while i was there!

thanks robert for the suggestion!

 

[soberleaf]

and on the way back i stopped in akron

to pick up a kdi-18 from a friend. it's my first 18 model kitchenaid! he also loaded me up with lots of extra parts. his dad had an appliance repair business too.

 

[soberleaf]

some of the extra parts

i was fortunate enough to get

 

[soberleaf]

lots of goodies

for kitchenaids

 

[soberleaf]

the kdi-18

looks quite good for it's age but hey, it's a hobart!

 

[soberleaf]

it'll be awhile

before i get to this one

 

[soberleaf]

but extra parts always come in handy

and he was quite generous!

 

[soberleaf]

all in all

it was a great trip and i enjoyed meeting larry and his wife and their dogs very much and had a blast rummaging around their shop all afternoon!

it's what makes appliance collecting fun! the unique people (and pets) you meet along the way!

That's a very nice KA you got there! I keeping my eyes open for a KA portable to replace my Whirlpool portable with when it goes.

Also, nice SQ wringer. The tub looks really good, somemone much have taken really good care of it.

 

[soberleaf]

there is a beautiful kitchenaid portable superba 16 series o

grab for around 50 bucks and have it shipped via u crate it for around 200 bucks. pump and motor parts are still being made and it would be a prized catch! stainless steel door panels too. i think bidding ends tomorrow night! check it out under "kitchansaid dishwasher" on e bay.

i thought about trying to buy it but i now have 19 kitchenaid disghwashers, i am up to my limit i think!

 

[norfolksouthern]

It would be nice

if he had the nut to a Frigidaire 1-18 agitator.
