This was their heyday in some ways............it so sad to see them now like other Britsh manufacturers.......... But hey ho gladly we mad gits keep them going and enjoy them all for what they are. I do remember Hale & Pace.........yeah could have backfired on Hoover using them, but fortunately it didnt Gary |

Hello Paul Glad your back with us......... Aye tis a nice dryer sounds very nice, who knows why people get rid of working stuff. But i will be doing the same, as you know i am not a lover of this range of machines (yes i know i am mad) so at some point i shall decide what to do with it. I tried out the 3060 today and thought of you immediatly coz the programmer moans and clicks very loudly all the way through a cycle. It all worked and washed beautifully (as these all do)......and even had balanced final spin......(it happens sometimes) Two points, the belt is knackered and the suspension is a bit twisted so needs doing, i replaced the crush washer on the drum bearings and took up the slack and all seems well on that front. Again thanks for a great weekend, not too long until the end of November! Gary Ps just one tiny thing, on Als thread about the dryer what do you mean "Usual Bendix" how very dare you!........ :-) |

Great weekend we had indeed, Gary those look fab together! The more I see the more I may allow some more Hoover into the collection LOL. Still cant get over the other find either as im sure Mathew cant too. To have both the unadvertised and probably only Selectamatic produced ever next to its matching dryer is unbelievable. Hoover, Merthyr Tydfil well we couldnt go and see it on Tuesday without a few photos now could we. Pleasant enough town too even if our spirits were killed with a horrendous downpour of rain forcing us to buy new jeans and socks to dry up. |

"ere mister wanna buy a dryer" :-).......what a find!!! just amazing round the corner to the selectamatic for god knows how long........amazing I think you two were brave to go to the Hoover factory......as i couldnt do that now......it would depress me.... I understand a cetain other machine spat its dummy out of the pram or is that water :-)..........never mind it will get sorted and the impromptu tour of Cardiff was a larf........ rob we are a bit closer to the end of November thats all i keep thinking.
