Hello everybody:

My parents have a vintage 1920's/30's Thor wringer washer that will have to be disposed of, as they are downsizing. I had hoped to have room for it someday, but unfortunately do not at the present time. So...it needs a new home, and some loving restoration work. If anybody is interested, it would have to be picked up where it is, in Calgary, Alberta.

I've included a photo representing the model (note...this is not a photo of the actual machine).

I can be reached by e-mail ... bradross63 at shaw dot ca

Regards...Brad

It's very nice of you to

Offer it here, I hope some one is able to get it.
It looks like it will be beautiful.

Thanks for your responses! I really hope there is somebody interested enough to "rescue" it! It's in fairly good condition, even the rubber of the wringers is in good shape, considering the age.

What does the agitator look like? Is it a standard gyrating agitator, or does it have the cups that pulse up and down??

Not that I am interested in getting it, although really I am. If I purchased all of the washers that I was interested in, I would have to rent the Vehicle Assembly Building from Cape Canaveral to hold them all.

Hello LaundraMatt...the agitator is a regular 3-vane type, made of cast aluminum.
