Philco/Bendix

[riberlove]

I would like to know if this machine was produce in USA too.
Also does anybody know if is there any way to find expares parts of this washer?
(220v for the European market)

That looks like a scaled-down version of a US model.

Paolo, that Carosello commercial is from 1964 so i guess that machine was made in Philco italian plants in Brembate di Sopra (Bergamo).
Maybe current Indesit management has dumped everything, anyway it's worth try to contact them. Maybe also spare part shops in the nearby have some useful info.

Hi Gyraform

Thank you for your answer, How many kg were there the front load bendix/philco in the 60'?
This for the Italian Market was a very big machine.
Many thanks
Paolo

Ciao Faforit

Faforit from the dishwasher AEG?
Where are you based? Do you have a you tube page too?
I love your link on the Sangirgio items!
I have some more pics.There are different from this ones, and my aunt got a catalouge from the 60 with all the product of that time. I was so pleased to see it!

I have asked to Philco customer service some expare parts for the 65a from the 60 and the answer was no.
I would like to put the gira gira in warking order ,but i think will be so difficult.
If i rememeber right mine is iven more comlete model she got more knobs for the spin etc.
I love it becouse is so difficult to find such complete machine like this one!
Is so strange that the drun rotate only on one way, i think you can end up with a big knot of bed linen!
Thank you.
