Hi guys,
Here's some pics of a machine from New Zealand that arrived this morning. It's a 1970's 'Leonard' by Fisher & Paykel. Many of our UK members will be very familiar with this design. It's basically a UK Hotpoint top loader with the 1000rpm spin speed with the filter flo. Interesting way i got this......through a recent 'liaison'....while chatting about my hobby he said his ex was in NZ at that time tidying up his mother's deceased estate. So, upon seeing the machine i decided to get it. The machine itself cost me nothing, just the cost of transport to Australia. Working very nicely. The only issue seems to be a squeaky brake. Full video to follow. First pic....before being unwrapped Cheers Leon |
