Well I Am Stunned!
Just stunned! The only word that can describe how stunned I am is... stunned.
Now Jetcone when did you say you'd be away again?
*LOL*

My 1967 landlord's Frigi wasn't on concrete, it was on the flimsy wooden underhouse of a hillside Hawaii home. And it didn't cause anyone palpitations or earthquakes. I lived UNDER it and I couldn't tell when it stopped without walking upstairs to see. When I wasn't standing there watching it.
But it wasn't the magnificent 'control tower' machine. Those are dramatically understated, or understatedly dramatic. A pinnacle among good-old Merikun laundry design. What beauties.

Just beautiful Jon, I've seen them in person and they are just as pretty close up!
Congrats on the new cement underneath them as well, that makes all the difference in the world.

Happy washing, Mike

1957 CONTROL TOWER FRIGIDARE WASHER & DRYER
WOW They look great Jon, I hope you are also going to have a cement base installed for the LKM gas combo so we can finally get it spinning smoothly.
Someone asked if this was a vented dryer or condenser dryer, All Frigidare TOL dryers from 1950-1960 were electric and no vent air-cooled condenser machines. And about the stability of these machines, Frigidare washers had less vibration problems after 1961 as they reduced the max spin speed and went to a wider 27" cabinet that year. But all the original Uni-Matics were just 25" wide and needed a good solid floor for best vibration free spin performance.

Ben & Rich
Ben- the Blackstone definitely gets cement and runs like a top now too!
Rich- good eye there, they do change 'color', if I may, in various light, never seen that kind of behavior in a major appliance before.

Color changes
like that a lot, more magic from these jewels. But the vision of all that chrome trim in # 3 "Oh my Lord in heaven!"
Jon, how about a tub shot, or is that still under restoration?
