Speed Queen-Hotpoint Parts Find, Rather Rare !!!

[filterflo]

Went on a parts and appliance hunting excursion yesterday and found some great items....... Here is a group photo shot.......

 

[filterflo]

A VERY rare find indeed! Hotpoint DuoWash Tub! Yeah! I have always wanted one of these washers and now that I have found the tub, perhaps the washer is just around the corner too.........

Inside of the Hotpoint tub.......

 

[filterflo]

More Hotpoint tub........

 

[filterflo]

Kissin Cousins...........The Hotpoint with its cousin, the GE MiniBasket, to give a perspective of the size between the two..........

 

[filterflo]

Speed Queen Combination Lint Filter and Fabric Softener Dispenser, All In One!

 

[filterflo]

Up to this point, I had only seen these in pictures. It was a fast grab when I saw this in a pile of plastic parts!

 

[filterflo]

Graphics dont show up very well in the photo, but read:

ADD RINSE CONDITIONER HERE

 

[filterflo]

Im just amazed at the design of this thing, it must be wonderful to see in operation!

 

[filterflo]

GE metal FilterFlo Pan, in anodized copper........used for the early models of FilterFlo, mainly between 1955 thru 1957. In 1957 GE changed the design slightly........

More Speed Queen........again, another item I had seen only in photos up to this point. Its a load indicator that was screwed on top of the agitator to help avoid overloading. Mostly found in Laundromats Im told.......

 

[filterflo]

More of the "Load" indicator.......

 

[filterflo]

Underside.........

 

[filterflo]

Hotpoint Fountain Filter and Agitator..........what a stunning color.......

 

[filterflo]

There will be more photos coming soon, as I have not unloaded all from my van. I also picked up two rare appliances and will be posting on a separate link soon...........I need to get them in the house and hooked up! Jimmy

WOW! Jimmy, nice haul. So sorry i missed this expedition. Can't wait to see the mystery machines.

 

[filterflo]

Im sorry you had to work Rich and couldnt make it. NEXT TIME FOR SURE! There is a lot of stuff at this place for you!!! Especially that Frigidaire set that has YOUR name on it! HA. Jimmy

Jimmy, what a haul, especially the Hotpoint Duo-Load minibasket and the elusive Speed Queen filter. It is quite fun to see in operation as well, lots of water-slinging action. Were these from a closed-down former appliance/parts dealer?

I'm curious to see the machines as well. With these finds, a matching Duo-Load washer *should* be just around the corner!

Jimmy,

If you are interested in selling any of that stuff, I'd love a chance to buy the GE mini-basket and the GE filter pan.

 

[filterflo]

Hi Austin, I was thrilled to find these things, and the appliances I picked up are even better.........I got two very rare items, neither of which are related to any of the brands of parts shown here.........Will be posting pics of them in a couple of days.........Im so excited about one of the items I was up all night looking at it!

 

[Unimatic1140]

Great finds Jimmy, I have never ever seen the Hotpoint DuoWash basket before, much less the actual machine. Now that would be a super cool find!

Turquoise Hotpoint Agitator

Do you want to sell the Hotpoint Agitator & Filter pan? I could really use it for my machine.

 

[swestoyz]

Woah Jimmy - nice load there! Those Hotpoint agitators are so cool - a fav. Can't wait to see what these mystery machines are!

[filterflo]

No, sorry guys, not interested in selling my parts at this point.

 

[filterflo]

OK, took a little time out from my work today and unloaded more from the van.........Here is a wonderful find! A Westinghouse Center Drawer Cold Injector Refrigerator...... Its a little rough but will make a wonderful parts donor for a similar model that I have in storage...... This one had been stored outside for a period of time.......

 

[filterflo]

Center Drawer Cripser and 7 day Meat Keeper..........

 

[filterflo]

Right now it looks more like a Katrina Storm Refugee.......

 

[filterflo]

Where is that Betty Furness when you need her?

 

[filterflo]

More of the Center Drawer..........Remember, You Can Be Sure If It's Westinghouse...

Great finds! The apartment complex I lived at in Phoenix, AZ had a coin laundry with the load-line caps on the agitators - I think I have the perforated-tub sales & service book and that was an option for a while. The filter-dispenser for the solid tub SQ is very cool looking - it's surprising how large they are with that dispenser well on top of the filter pan. Don S. used mine in his SQ washer for a while.
