Random shots at the warehouse

Here are some random shots at the warehouse this weekend while John and Smitty were working on the stairs and lighting. Of course work was involved so I was nowhere to be found.

The Yellow Whirlpool makes my knees knock. In a good way.

Oh W O W !!!!

A Kenmore 518, yes that's the first large capacity Kenmore. Holy moly (or as Radar on M*A*S*H said, "Holy Socks!").

If there isn't already a lengthy line or if it's even available, put my name on the list please! Wow would like to work on that machine. It's only the second one I've ever seen.

Kelly - I'm with ya on the yellow Whirlpool. AWESOME. Never seen a Cadet Blue GE range before.

Jason/John - tell Smitty I found a '59 Imperial for sale. Have him send me an email if he'd like some photos.

Round Shouldered

Gordon, thank you for pointing out the Kenmore. At first glance I wrote it off as a straight vane. I remember seeing the large capacity washer in the catalogue around 66 with the round shouldered agitator but never saw one in real life. If you have the good fortune to end up with it, I'd love to see and hear it run.

Very nice! Do I spy a Blue Whirly?I never seen a blue Whirlpool before, My favorite color. The electromic Kenmores are cool to with the oven window type door on the dryer. Keep up the good work

Great Collection

What a Great Collection of equipment! I just wish I had some more room, I would love to pick up something new to have. But I don't want to get rid of what I have as I enjoy it.

John & Smitty

I just had a visit from those guys a week or so ago. Great guys. I hope the coppertone Tags work out.

Lovely stuff! I didnt know 24" belt drives went back that far. And the cadet blue is stunning. When can we all come visit?

Nice variety

Sure would like to see your warehouse whenever I get back to that area. My favorites are the GE range in Cadet Blue, and the blue Whirlpool washer. It looks to be their "Edged Sapphire" color, which was available for only a short time in the late 60's. The yellow WP washer is also nice.

The blue Whirlpool looks interesting. First time I have seen a washer in this color. The black set looks interesting too, I assume it is a Kenmore set? Love the dryer with the window.

Louis--

The black Frankenmore pair (Jason's) visited with me for a while. They are very nice and Jason tchotchked 'em up---the dryer with a window door.

The Blue Whirly looks even better in person. What a beautiful color.

 

[surgilator_68]

The Black Lady is unmodified. The Black lady dryer is well, as Steve said, Frankenmore. The windowed door is from a Kitchenaid. At the time I built that dryer you could still get all the parts from WPL. A few years ago I tried to get the parts to build another one and everything was NLA.

YAY

My A101 really does exist!!

That early kenmore looks tempting all those nice buttons...

 

[appnut]

Mister Jetcone, what early kenmo with all those buttons? I only see a yellow whirly!!

 

[mickeyd]

Relieved to see the 906

has survived the trip from Ted's to the warehouse for evaluation.

Very eager to see what cycle gems hide behind those buttons. Comforting to know it's in good hands.

 

[surgilator_68]

Yeah...what buttoned kenmore?
