rogera608s Re: Frigidaire/ Westinghouse

When I worked for Montgomery Wards back in the early 80's we sold the same machine under the Wards brand but with the Westinghouse control panals and were built by Westinghouse for Montgomery Wards. They were a pretty good washer and didn't have a lot of service calls on them, but if we did get a service call it would be on one of the Westinghouse more often than the Norges. But I like the Frigidaire/Westinghouse washer you have. I would like to have one my self since I'm not real happy with my Maytag Neptune, but it will have to do.

Blackstone Washer

My parents owned one in the late 50's before I was born. Interesting machine and great pics.

Thanks

Ross' Westy and more

Ross' Westinghouse has a much more awesome agitator on it than the Faux-18--it has the blue ramped agitator that really moves some clothes.

Laundryboy--We'll post pics of the little Bradford twinnie (which may be a Panasonic--we wouldn't be surprised) after the wash-in; we're not ignoring you--promise.

Nate,

I saw the '68 Westinghouse at the Convention with that DEEP RAMP agitator (moreso than the Activator or Roto-Swirl IMHO) and was thoroughly impressed. It had awesome turnover even with the indexing tub!

Does Ross's Westinghouse have the smaller Handwash agitator under it like the '68, or is it just a 1-piece ramp?

That will be fun...more Westinghouse time at the Arizona Convention! The countdown begins...3 weeks WOOHOO!

Although I was shocked and horrified when the 1980 1-18's came to the Frigidaire dealership in my town, it's kind of cool to see them again. I had an '86 Frigidaire but didn't like the agitator design and the transmission when south after only about a year. I like the agitator on yours much better.

And a Blackstone and a Unimatic.... I'm green with envy. Congrats on all your excellent finds!
