Who Wants A New Project For 2016?

[launderess]

Something that will keep you busy and mind occupied over the long cold winter months?

 

[launderess]

Maybe a hobby to keep your mind busy....

 

[launderess]

Well I can fix that!

Voila!

(Yeah that Frenchman again, there wasn't anything he didn't know...)

Nice style! I like the "gas" and "electric" symbols on the control panels!

 

[norgeway]

What year???

Are these...I would love to see the REST of the house!!!!

 

[ovrphil]

New flame in your life

I like these panels, however demure.

Wow - Nice Find

These are maybe 1957?  1958?

Wow, very cool.  I *think* these are '59 models (rounded cabinets and a four hole tub).  I believe the '60 panels were similar to the '61 I picked up last year.  Any Whirlpool from this time frame is tough to find.

A true classic.

Whirlpool!

That is one awsome set. I believe this was a 1959 because it was before the magic mix filter. I am surprised it only offered a 10 minute wash in the main cycle. I always thought WP was always good for at least 14 minutes.
Thanks for such a great display!

Would love to see this house.

This must by one of the first square body sets. Wasn't that after 1961?

 

[washdaddy]

that is an awesome set. Would be great to see them all cleaned up and running. You don't see anything styled like that anymore. The lid handle on the washer is like a piece of jewelry for the machine.

There's an extra hashmark before 10 that isn't labeled (12).  Could also be that 14 mins can be done by setting it at the edge of the Normal outline.

It's apparently a suds-saver, and there's a button at the right end of Gentle that's presumably for a console light.

Interesting temp selections.  Seems to be Hot, Med, W-n-W Med, Warm, W-n-W Warm, Cold.  Hot, Med, and Warm presumably have a warm rinse, with the two W-n-W selections (and Cold) being a cold rinse?

 

[appnut]

Cold rinse is exactly what W'n'W meant.

 

[akronman]

hmm

Well I pick them up Saturday. Launderess, you are correct, a winter project!
And a SUDS model!!!!!!!

Way to go. Can't wait to see them transformed.

 

[philr]

Congrats Mark, these are really interesting machines!

 

[washdaddy]

Yes..Congratulations Mark on getting those machines.

You will definitely have to keep us posted on what shape they are in and what you need to do to get them up and going.

Great score!

Mark Best Of Luck with this awsome set!
