That's right, post an appliance you want searched for and I'll oblige. I will flog the internets
and see what's out there and post the results here.

 

[turquoisedude]

Always remember, YOU asked for it...

LOL   OK, here's a challenge for you:  a 1957, 58, or 59 Hotpoint dishwasher with the 'double deck' wash system. 

Bonus points if its Turquoise!!

Okay TD I'm on the case!
Setting the dials on the wayback machine..

Knock yourself out

I've been searching SF Bay Area CL for an Easy Spindrier -- an older model with ribbed decorative trim, big levers on the front and faucets for filling and rinsing, in working condition or in need of relatively minor fixes.   They are scarce around here, and in the rare instance when one turns up it's either overpriced or too new.

Getting warmer, or at least more interesting to look at:

Oh yeah...definitely warmer now.

Oh jeez what's going on here?
Someone needs to identify this, ah situation.

Edit-Check out the pic i just added..

Okay, pulling out the big guns...got Mary Tyler Moore on the case, in search of that Hotpoint sparkle!

 

[stricklybojack]

No Turquoise! For '58 at least, but you probably already knew that.

[turquoisedude]

OMG!  I hadn't seen that older thread about the Hotpoint dishwashers!  You are definitely getting warmer.... LOL

 

[washdaddy]

I question whether or not that combo unit in reply #6 has a frig in it. The DW is evidently a machine that was switched out with the original. That being Frigidaire.

But credit does have to go out to Robert for his diligence in trying to track down some wish items for people here. Good luck!

 

[ovrphil]

yeah Good LUCK searching CL!

So much to discover and enjoy while your fingers do the walking.

and to add to the list, Robert - here's one of the few that fans and members

supplied not too long ago - maybe they're still looking for these, too? Guys?[this post was last edited: 11/11/2015-09:12]

A bit far from the SF Bay Area though...

[stricklybojack]

Nearer but still half a country away..
Notice however this one states it's, "ready for restoration"(!) ...always chuckle when I see that.

[rp2813]

Nice!

That rusty Easy is exactly what I'd like to find.  It sounds like it might not need too much work, but yeah, it's a little far from me.

 

I don't even mind the rust, but I think the laundered articles would.

 

Thanks for searching!

 

[stricklybojack]

.
No rust inside so cloths should be fine; and i bet the outside would clean up nice.

 

[midcentnurse]

Ok what about early 60s , dare I dream?!, NIB, GE or Kenmore or frigidaire washer dryer set? Matching, in white or dream of dreams turquoise close enough to pick up. Pretty much anywhere within 8 or so hours of south Louisiana. Price no object. How much could one charge anyway

 

[norgeway]

I want to find

A Hardwick , Brown or Dixie gas range from the 50s or 60s.

 

[daveamkrayoguy]

Is this "Just For Fun"?

'70's Caloric Gas Range, preferably hi-lo double-oven...

 

I don't REALLY have to buy it, do I?

[ken]

1956 GE or Hotpoint 2 door fridge.

 

[moparguy]

Ken, look on Norfolk craigslist, in appliances enter 1956 (I don't know how to attach a link)... there is a 56 GE 2-door combination fridge, asking $375.

 

[stricklybojack]

.
Well at least it looks 70's. No gas or double ovens though.
Just starting..
