Old agitators
I recently broke a section off the bakelite agitator in my 1967 Fluid Drive (don't ask!)
I cursed, and remembered the spare one I threw away at the hard rubbish....
Fotunately, I located a retired washing machine engineer who had another.
Parts are getting scarcer for something this old, but they're there and will be as long as these older chaps are around!
Cheers

Sme games we used to play... Agitators on the rooftop...
Agitators go to Washington
Agitators in the leaves
Does someone have the original "Agitators in the Attic"?
Peter---I know all the agitators but two; Help me out, OK?
To which brand of washer would agitator #4 in the rooftop photo belong?
To which brand of washer would agitator #3 in the march on Washington belong?
Thanks for the very entertaining photos!

# 6 is a Whirlpool Surgilator
but have never seen one in what looks like metal before; mayhaps it's the Whirlpool wringer agi. Too bad we can't see insude such on the other thread.

number six on the roof
Rooftop #6 is an early Beam agitator, used in early Hotpoint, Dexter and Coronado automatics, as well as some other washers that Bean produced. I always thought it was a very cool design.

Hi jinx at Gyra's--love it!
too many rooftops--cars and garages--and a little mold on mine ;'D
Eugene asked about #3 in "Warshington," which is still unidentified.
If 3 in the leaves is not a small manta ray, then I'm a Frigidaire square-necked ball sprung suds-back hose--do you have one in the warehouses? Give a roof to have one!
Just adding more fun and confusion.

IMO the only thing more kool than that all metal Surgilator would have been one done in that wonderful red marbleized bakelite with a chromium bullet cap of course!
The folks in marketing sure missed their moment. IMO ALL standard capacity Surgilators should have been red marbleized.

Stevie, I agree, the red marbleized Surgi is ecstacy
Now..... what about the Frigidiare square suds-return hose. You MUST know about these marvels. DO TELL !!!!!!! Should not have to go to Australia to find one, much less hear confirmation of its existence
Your good friend,
Mikey.
The one in the pic is a fake, a poseur, I need the real thing, to make a Frigidaire Sud-saver King. Rescue me!
