Nice slosage inside, and NO bearing noise! This machine did alot of work in its day and was used in some kind of garage. Because it smelt like old cars and was covered in machine grease inside and out which in the next picture you will see has preseved the inside to almost factory new! I had to really scrub the whole inside out to get this thing clean! |

Whenever you get the chance, I would be more than interested in collecting a good Youtube demo of your fabulously restored Bendix. I would especially love to hear what she sounds like. Many thanks.--Laundry Shark |

The first washing machine of my childhood. Like everyone else, I'm looking forward to any videos you're able to put together. As to colour - maybe I'm old fashioned, but I've only every thought of that model as being white. Nick |

Should I be watching the mails.......or better yet are you coming over in person?? Nick this machine was made here in 1956 and think it was the same for OZ but I think it was the 1957 model year in the UK. I have too many white machines my collection needs some color so I think tutone white top & Sun Burst yellow it is. I just can't paint good Bendix porcelain can you?? |
