Hey gang -
A buddy tipped me off on this Speed Queen a few days ago and it's been haunting me since. Before I even attempt to contact the land owner and hatch a plan to save this diamond in the rough from a very dangerous location (decomposing barn), I wanted to see if anyone out there has a spare timer dial and knob. Otherwise I'm planning on forgetting about it. Ben |

A sad ending for a fine 'Queen, I love the badge in the middle of the front panel. |

Ben,
You'll get your "wings" if you go after that one, but seriously, be safe! |

That's a nice device, probably good for lifting any appliance outside of a Chambers range! |

...but maybe a prayer! LOL
This would be a '54 Speed Queen. If my memory is serving me well, I think this was Speed Queen's second automatic. Robert found the first model within the last year or so with the full stainless top. Greg has a beautiful example of this washer and I've lusted after it for years.
Cory isn't kidding, and Kenny's suggestion may be the ticket, or at least something of the sorts. We'll see if the land owner doesn't think I'm crazy and also will let me take a look at the goods. More to come...
