OMG...Servis / Speed Queen / Simplicity
Wow Eddy I wish I was responsible, what a find...and advocado as well, lovely colour, no colour here just white with coloured trims, this was based on the Servis MK3 model 70 twinny which was out here in July 1970, Servis UK had an alliance with Speed Queen, (and it would appear Speed Queen with Simplicity??) would send out the innards of the machines, all pumps & hoses would be packed into the tubs, then SQ would make the cabinets (hence colours) & build them.. Only difference to ours is the 3kw heater, & the agi, the one here was the two stage model with "Snap-On Power Fin" which housed a lint collector, whats the waste hose like Eddy?? parts are still available here, BUT can you get the rinse nozzle pipe as seen in the pick, these tend to perish underneath and any pressure blows it apart!!!enjoy it, Mike

Drain hose
Mike, the drain hose is in great shape as well as the fill hose which came with it. The only thing it's missing is the rubber clothes guard that fits over the clothes in the spinner. I guess SQ decided to make it a 2 speed machine and keep the one piece agitator. Wonder if SQ molded their own agi for this? Says Speed Queen on the bottom. Guy, I never knew they came with a lint filter. Do you have a pic of yours? David, yes I have done a load already and it works like a charm. Glad to share this neat find with you all.

Twinny
Wow, a two speed twinny, who ever would have thought, you must have a world first there Eddy!!!, hoses look great, have a spare mat so will send one, the spin can looks similar to our previous model the MK3 model 42, this was the only machine to have holes, all the rest had solid baskets with a vane etc, later machines had electric pumps!!!looking forward to the vids etc.... David, have you tried TwinTub man jon in brum, he has spare twinny parts also marknrosemary on ebay in Notts, loads of spares there, dont have a spare but will keep eyes out for a donor machine etc... And Guy, we need pics!!! we need a colour rush, Harvest Gold sounds great!!! Cheers, Mike | ||

Love the light grey tub and the darker grey agi--very classy
Yes, that's the later vintage 4 vane classic SQ agitator is a scaled-down version. The agi neck and cap are identical to one version of the SQ wringer agi. Sorry, no pic available. Really like the styling on the control panel and the marked suds-return duct. You know Eddy, as much as I like the Hoover, the 4 minute wash bothers me a little. I much prefer yours with the 15 minute wash. Of course the Brit Hoove's with the heat-up soak before the wash would be just as cool. Also love how you can "empty" the spinner without spinning. Very unusual and so cool! Healthy envy and empathy for you. You must be crazy about that washer. I sure would be!!!!;'D | ||
