There will be a price to pay for that ad Mike
when the lads from Brum see it LOLOL Mind you maybe they could come up with their own version - or would it be a case of "I wouldn't be seen dead materialising out of a Servis"?
Anyway .... the previous picture shows the control I was familiar with. I was aware that the SQ had two speed agitation, but did it have a two speed spin as well? For surely that is the implication of the knob .....

beautiful old twin tubs
I have been drooling over these pictures of old machines. Am convinced the supertwin III and MK3 model 70 would have same innards as my sadly worn out simplicity ST5W or the speed queen version. Are parts there also obsolete? Looking for post(tower)(agitator shaft support)10532 and shaft10495 Are these part #'s the same?

this is where i found it
I work for Leeds city council part of my job is aranging the clearance of void properties this turned up in a flat of an elderly lady that had died needles to say i saved it from the same fate as its owner .its in good condition there is a small amount of rust but thats all even the unusual double hose on the back is ok the washer is virtually silent but the spinner is very noisy .its safely tucked up in my shed till i get round to sorting it out.the lady next door told me the old girl stopped using it sometime in the 1980s when the council installed a laundry in the basement so its stood in the same place unused for almost 30 years

Hope it will have nothing to re-do and will pass first water test, mine did and was OK internally, I have got mine one year ago shipped from UK to Italy (where I live)...
Shipping was a little messy, infact due to clumsy shippers it got it's knobs and timer splin destroyed, but with the kind help of Austin Ozzie, and other members on here I got it up and running...will not thank them enough.
Now the poor machine is having a few issues, it's spinner motor won't run, it stopped out of the blue, trying to figure out what's wrong...
BTW noisy spinning is the norm with them like i heard it is for hoover TT, but it depends on how noisy it is....
These are beautiful machines, wash wonderfully and are solid, well built.
I am happy I own mine and will do my best to keep it up and running, it was worth every cent of the dear money it costed me...
The one you found is a little rusty but with a touch up of the right paint color will return new...it also have the original 2 chamber hose...
Had to fix mine with two separate ones as the original had a crack....this machine will make you happy, i am sure....
Congrats
