I bought a pair of 1-18's new, back in 1979--they were in Poppy. Sold them with the house when I moved---duh. My '68 Maytag 806 is in a beautiful Chocolate coppertone, hopefully that Kenmore will polish up just as pretty!

Cool machine; Greg I hope you restore it to its former glory! Is this one a "keeper"?

Greg,
Cool machine I like the coppertone. Does the head that your going to put on the machine have oval shaped pieces of glass surrounding the water level and temprature gauges and an orange filter light at the right edge of the control panel? If so that is the same control panel that was on my moms 1963 70. I have seen a 1964 Sears magazine ad with my moms machine in coppertone and I have also seen it in an early 1965 catalog. Can't wait to see the after photos. PAT COFFEY

Iam going to get a disposable camera either tomorrow or mond
Hey Don I have seen your collection and I must say that it is pretty cool. I love the way you display your radio's above that beautiful Maytag washer and dryer you have I plan to get a disposable camera tomorrow or monday and take pictures of my Tv as well as my phone and radio collection. Oh and thanks for the welcome but I am not new here, I just let my membership lapse. I didn't realize that when Robert redid this website to make it the awesome way it is now (don't get me wrong I thought it was cool the other way too!!!)that he must have taken off peoples profiles who didn't page very frequently. Actually I was at the 2002 convention and if you look at some of the pictures taht were taken you will see me with my huge laundry bag stuffed with dirty clothes I brought to the convention to try out some of the vintage machines I am wearing a green shirt with white flowers and you can't miss me because I am a long way from being what you might call petite. Don I f you want to talk off the site feel free to email me and I would be glad to exchange phone numbers or what have you as I would love to talk to you PAT

Gansky1, looks like you have an interesting restoration project on your hands. I'd like to see the "after" photos posted here, including interior shots of the mechanism.
Appliguy, you have a collection of telephones too, eh? So do I, by virtue of 20+ years in the interconnect industry (and counting), including stuff from countries that don't exist any more. What sort of stuff do you have there? (Perhaps this belongs in new thread under Super?) BTW, Vienna VA is known as a suburb for people who work for a couple of "the agencies". You wouldn't happen to have an interest in old crypto machines by any chance, or aerial photography?
