Also,
I'd be curious to see the BOL model that the 2 speed "16" with a polypropylene lid replaced. I have never seen one but according to the documentation I have seen, they were single speed but unlike later BOL models, had infinite water level control, had the Jet Circle Spray System, a porcelain enamel lid, the 1-18 Jet Cone agiatator and "2-18" badge. Can anyone show a picture of a WAS machine that shows that "2-18" badge? |

the 16 pounders had the later 1-18 jetcone with perf. tub.
But I did have a commercial machine in my collection which was a 1-18 chassis but it had the 12 pound solid tub and Deep Action agitator in grey. So there were variants around. I didn't keep it as it was only gravity drain and I have no floor drains. ooppss should I have said that?? |

I looked a long time for these pictures and finally found them. Unfortunately back in the early 1980's when I took the photos the camera quality wasn't that great and I wasn't thinking in terms of details.
This is a WCDA3T washer. It was designated as a "16" on the control panel. I was able to adjust the water level regulator and made it into an "18". This was a good machine until the bearings went out from a leaky tub seal and I discarded it not being into saving and restoring like I am today. The dryer was a DIAS that I later sold so I could find a set that matched. Patrick |
