Mark-

No pic showed up and the other thread seems to be temporarily locked up. Is your picture size too large?

I must admit they look good from the side. I hope you enjoy them.

I really thought it was a Bendix on that large pallet.

Hey Patrick.........umm I don't think my picture was too large, but knowing me i screwed something up.....lol
as to "Who keeps the everything in its place yard" lol Well that would be me.....and it looks this good because i'd been working on it all day....That's why i was all hot and sweaty when my wife took the picture....Hopeing to get them waxed and checked out and do a "maiden" wash tonight.....WOO HOO can't wait
 
well yea for you know you will love them they are lots of fun and really wash well... cant wait to see them in person and yes of course i will help you move them into the house..
 
Hi Mark, OMG congratulations on a beautiful 1/18 Frigidaire set. These will be so much fun to use, please post some action shots when you can.

I don't think my picture was too large, but knowing me i screwed something up.....lol
Nope, you did nothing wrong, the server has been acting up the past few days.
 
Hi Mark, beautiful set!! Congratulations!! Might have missed this but where did you find these beauties at??
 
Mark, You'll find yourself paying more attention to the machines than the yard now. Once you get hooked on 1-18's, it's hard to step away for ANY reason, as they are very entertaining.

I love my set!

bet he wont let me play with them

Christfr oh Christfr......I should spank you for that comment...because you know it just isn't true! lol

Somebody took good care it!
Foraloysius-From what i can tell the set is completely original...They will need to be waxed and cleaned up just a bit but otherwise ready to put into service.

where did you find these beauties at??
The set came from the great northwest. Used Craters and Freighters and they did an excellent job of packaging. You should have seen all the styrofoam they used around them so they wouldn't get scratched.....The price wasn't bad either to have them shipped......
 
Mark

nice set there! You'll have fun with those for sure. That tub looks to be in great shape which means these are probably a low use machines.

And no excuses for the clothes! I love men in shorts!

Don't cha love the way Craters n Freighters packs?? I just got a machine from the Northwest too and they built the box around it! Well worth the moolah!

Waiting for that virgin wash........

HM hMMM nice set! Looks good. (clearing throat).

Um, The washer/Dryer looks good too. I agree with the Jet, an attractive moustached guy in shorts....
showing his new washer/dryer set always get my attention.

Crater & Freighters does an excellent job of packing. Super thick boxes, enough styrofoam to insulate an attic, and a wood palet to boot.
 
1-18's ready to go!

Got the 1-18's in place this afternoon after checking everything. did have to clean the spin and agitate rollers as they were gunked up a bit.....Other than that they are ready to go.....Here is my '65 Roller-Matic and the 1-18 washer together (where they should be right?) Still need to put a coat of Rejex on them and they will shine like no tomorrow.......

'65 Roller-Matic and the 1-18 washer

Together at last.......now they just need a '67 or '68 Roller-Matic to keep them company.....Don't ya think?

maiden wash

This first load in the 1-18.....only thing i could find that was dirty was my shop towels and car waxing towels, oh well......had to have something to wash ......

Video

I do have a video that i took with my digital cam but i do not have a clue how to download the video from my camera. If someone would e-mail with some advice I would greatly appreciate it. I will have to figure out how to edit it since my lovely wife decided to yank my shorts down in the middle of the video.....Thanks for all the great comments guys.....Jetcone and Washertalk, I do believe you two are due for an eye exam.......lol
