Here's a picture of one of the Norges I was referring to. The big round circle in the middle of the control panel aws the timer display. Just to the right of that big circle is the knob which rotated the timer--the red visual "needle" at 12 o'clock on the display designated timer settings as it moved through the cycle. A Norge VHQ washer is another POD and it has a huge handle to grab onto to set the timer. RICKR's 1963 Custom Imperial is similar.

It sure did - here is the low down on GM/Frigidaire letter by year:
1965 - J 1966 - K 1967 - L 1968 - N 1969 - P 1970 - S 1972 - T You won't find a J in the model number for laundry products in 1965, but it was the first year GM started describing the 1965 model year as the J models for refrigeration, ranges, etc. Starting in '68 things started to blur. You would have 1968 model year machines being produced through the 1969 production run, but did not receive a P in the model number. Same holds true for the 1970 1-18 machines (S) being made in 1971, and T machines being produced in 1973. Starting in '74 they started to drop the idea that a year would be specified within the model - at least for laundry products. LOVE this POD! Can anyone tell me what year and model the car is? Ben |

Think it's awesome that you're so into it, you actually had your cabinets blasted. They shimmer.
My bedroom was just after the laundry room, and when I'd come in, the house was usually asleep, and only the beautiful copper Custom deluxe would still be up, the pretty glow of the illuminated dial and warm and inviting. What I most loved was the "settling-in" rattle of the rollers after the washer reached the first spin speed. I'd always wait the full minute for the rush and the pitched hum as she warped up to top speed. Would love to hear that sound again. Such an amazing washing machine. |
