.... and lock me up because 7 days ago I brought home 2 washers and a dryer. THEN 5 days ago I brought home ANOTHER belt drive! And now, yesterday I bring home ANOTHER 2 washers and another dryer!!!!! OMFG I have totally and COMPLETELY lost my mind <br
So... this brings me to the photos <br
This should leave no doubt what the first one is.....

Yes.. yes... I know, I know...

This one is too NEW and it doesn't belong here! Maybe so, but the next item up after it for "show 'n tell" will make up for it I think.... <br
The woman did not like this Frigidaire Affinity washer for silly reasons... like not being able to "throw something else in after the machine was started"... so they just bought a new TL. I ONLY paid $75 for this 2 1/2 year old washer and it does work PERFECTLY!! (I've already done 2 loads in it)

So now on to the 3rd Item I brought home....

When I left the house Saturday morning I had only planned on picking up both of these washers... never this one.. <br
The guy I bought the Maytag from also had this dryer and said he was going to have someone haul it away. But after I saw it, I said I would take it.
 
The control panel is supposed to light up... but the bulb is burned out. Is this type of bulb still available today?? It's 120V and 25 watt but has a "push-twist" bulb like brake light bulbs for a car <br
Help?

Oh Kevin this is just fantastic. I can't believe all the wonderful things you are finding, and in such great condition! Now for sure I am going to have to get Richie to bring me over to your house <br
The 806 is after about 1976, as it's the last center dial with the gold trim on bottom and no chrome strip on front of the machine (or apparently the chrome agitator cap). I think by then it was top of the line, as I don't think there were 900s in that last group of center dials <br
The Norge dryer is from the early 1960s, I've either seen ads or there's been a picture of the day. There was even a hair dryer attachment! The Stop and Dry handle turns off the tumbling and there's a rack you put inside to dry thing like sweaters, canvas sneakers, and etc. Fabulous design isn't it? Hope you're able to find a suitable bulb <br
The Frigidaire is a wonderful machine too. Richie has had 2 of them now. I think they are a good value for the money.
