LATE 1960S WP WASHER

1969 To be exact, a good work horse of a washer, would be a fun washer for someone that wants a messy manual clean water fall lint filter.

The dryer...

Is a Toyota Kenmore.

This is a fascinating sub-set of products. Most of the washers were large capacity, however the majority of the dryers were not. They had a mish-mash of features which could not be found in similar machines on the Sears floor, and seem to have been produced in decent numbers based on the number of times I've seen these pop-up on Craigslist.

Toyota Kenmore agitators

Larry -

The first machines were standard capacity and had straight vane agitators. Later there was a basic direct drive (never saw one) with the DD version of the straight vane. The 1980s large capacity models all had (there were three models) the Penta-Vane. (That agitator kicks arse, by the way...)

1960s WP Washer

Will you do a video of this washer washing a white blanket with a load of whites? I like to see the off-balance spins.

Scott, it is real easy to add a Suds-Miser to WP BD washers of this age where there is no Magic-Clean filter.
