Congratulations! The '63 has a cool-looking console. It's going to be an awesome machine when you get those pulsator rings replaced.

looks great!

Love the design on this! did you say a family member had a similar set? I have a set of early 70s 1-18s like my aunt had and always think of her when I use them. Enjoy!

1963 Frigidaire Imperial washer

hello Greg,  My next door neighbor has a 1960 (I think) Frigidaire Unimatic.  This washer fascinated beyond words.  She would let me watch it thru complete cycles anytime she was do laundry.  Good times, good memories.

I was fascinated

with the design of so many appliances, etc. from the 50's, 60's, and 70's. Even the knobs were styled. Not just blocky pieces of plastic. The Kenmore knobs also.
Buick I.P. and radio knobs had chromed wreaths around the outer perimeter.
