Very Old Whirlpool Washer and Dryer in Los Angeles Area

[d-jones]

I've never seen machines like these before so I thought they might interest someone here. They look a little rough but the truth could be much worse. The seller is asking $150.00 for the pair.

1950 or so washer, the dryer matches the first Whirlpool auto washer - so guessing 48-49? Both look to have been sitting outside for quite sometime.

Nice '61 Fleetwood in the background!

I'd like to see

the insides of the dryer if you get a chance. And the washer too.

There is need to lubricate the blower fan shaft located in the upper left if you open the back up. It probably has never been done.

Looks like pipes in the picture

on the dryer. Is that a gas dryer?
