From seller at dfarley13@cfl.rr.com ...

"I have an original (not restored) fully functional Frigidaire washing machine in excellent condition that I've had in storage for 20+ years. The washer is complete with the original hot and cold line hoses, original drain hose and original use and care instructions/booklets. The original wiring diagram on the back of the machine was printed in March of 1966. I have not been able to identify actual year of manufacture. The serial number is: 38 VD 9890."


Just so its clear: a washer that has been in storage for 20 years most likely is no longer "fully functional".

This was the very first used washing machine I ever bought back in 1987. I had a two-room studio apartment and I first had a KitchenAid top loading dishwasher that drew water and drained into an apartment sink/cabinet combo. Then, I figured if I got a solid-tub washing machine it would use a small enough amount of water that it wouldn't overburden the plumbing and I could replace the dishwasher (which I wasn't using all that much, but I sure wish now that I had kept it) with a more useful appliance, a clothes washer.

Anyway, there was a wonderful used appliance store in Westbrook CT right next to an old laundromat that used GM Frigidaire Rollermatic washers. George had a bunch of Rollermatics in a mini-graveyard in the back. I wanted a "Rapid Dry" model, but this exact model, pictured above, was in much better condition than anything else so I bought it. Exactly the same except mine had metal selector knobs, not white ones.This machine did all my laundry handily for six years until I moved out of the apartment and sold it to the next tenant. Wish I'd kept it, but...

And now I have the matching dryer in Canary Yellow. Go figure.

 I'd replace those original hoses for sure! That sure does look like a clean machine!
 What is the seller expecting in the way of price?

I offered the seller $200.00, and he declined my offer. He must think it is worth more, but the fact it is not a rapidry model hurts the value. Hope someone can snatch it up.

That is a very nice Frigidaire, just minty-fresh. Wonder why it was stored for so long? Because it was a DPC mid-line machine most rollers, clutch parts and crucial pump bits shouldn't be too terribly difficult to rustle up if needed.

1966 FRIGIDARE WASHER

combo52's profile picture
I have had a couple of these over the years and I was always impressed how Frigidare was so far ahead of its time with the white on white styling that would be all the rage in the early 1990s. I currently have the Rapid-dry version with the older three ring agitator in it, its one of my favorite Frigidrare washers.

what he wants for it, since it's been sitting so long unused it's more minty, so to speak... So that very well may precipitate a higher than usual pricetag.

Looks like a very clean machine in good shape. Pricing is one thing I really need to know more about when it comes to these vintage machines. $200.00 seems fair to me.
While on the subject of Roller-matics, I have been trying to find information on the drive mechanism and how it works. Then I found the Frigidaire service manuals right in front of my face on the Home page. However the PDF file for the Roller-matics does not open. The other pdf's do open. Any advice?

The Rollermatic Manual

joelippard's profile picture

The file opens, but it's a big file so it takes a bit to download it depending on your connection.  It's probably best saved to your hard drive then viewed.  Study it over and you'll get a good overview of how they're put together, but there's nothing like getting up close and personal :)

That's an illegal mod mister! 3-ring in a Rapid-dry! If it was an early 1964 production machine I could let that slide but this is blatant! Negative 10 points John Lefever! Thats NEGATIVE 10!

"IT sold for $390.00, 20 years ago....and is like NEW"

 

This is the statement worth pondering on. 

 

It has a clean cabinet, but you really don't know what's underneath. Have rats chewed on wiring, have vital electrical componenets dried out, how about all of the rubber pieces. Bellows may be rotted, and possibly unseen rust. It's true you do only live once, but a bad decision can make that one life rather miserable in some case. Being taken for an expensive ride like that for a heap would fall under that category. That's a lot of money to throw at the unknown. It is your money, it's merely advice to proceed with great caution.

 

Only advise...

i agree

rollermatic's profile picture
i have 6 of these machines and have gotten some that were in great shape, one was really bad! parts are very rare, i have managed to find a good collection for myself including bellows, tub seals, motors, but there aren't many left! rollers are very hard to find and pump parts are even harder. lucily for me i bypass the pumps and gravity drain all mine. outer tubs tend to be badly rusted around the bottom where transmission mounts.

i personally would not give more than $200.00 for this machine, no matter how good it looks on the outside. it's what inside that will determine whether it will run again!

and yes, the rollermatic manual here is hard to download but once you get it it's worth it's weight in gold in learning how these machines operate. i have studied it over and over for days at a time and it enabled me to put my 65 rapidry custom imperial back together and run perfectly! after a complete tear down.

i would be cautious in offering close to 600 for that machine!

I'll bet she's in good shape, rollermatics seem to age well from what I've seen unless it was used with water that was heavy with iron, probably a little rust here and there but I couldn't see it being worth a dime more than $400 myself.

I downloaded the rollermatic manual and it did take awhile, but boy was it worth it. I think I am hooked. This is one cool machine and drive mechanism. I always liked Frigidaire TL, but never paid much attention to the operation until becoming a member on AW.org. I now have 2 machines in mind for my first vintage quest; FL Westy and a ST Rollermatic. I love the whole concept of the roller drives and how there is no transmission, gears and belts or pulleys and you can see all the parts working together in the back. Now it's a matter of finding one!

The 3RAUDK gives much better rollover just ask Robert, besides it was that way when I got the machine and all I ever wash in this washer are towels so tangling is not a serious problem. You boys in Massachusetts must be suffering from too much winter weather it may be time to get out of the house.

dream machine?

I am going to be in that areea tomorrow and will see if I can gt a look at it and maybe some interior and mechanical shots.

Is this the best example, mechanically of the 1-18's? Is this the model we should all long for or was it the earlier machines?

I, for one would not want to spend that much on a madhine but if the price somehow became right, maybe I would grab it, but it would not sit unused.. It would be the secondary daily driver. If it cleans as well as some people claim, it might replace the Duet. Too bad it doenst have the Rapid dry feature but I am sure it does a decent water extraction, Is it acceptable or do the clothes come out wet?

well

joelippard's profile picture

This is one of the ones that people look for alot.  The mechanism is similar to a 1-18 but not quite the same as the 1-18 is belt driven.  It absolutely cleans and rinses very well, provided that it has been loaded in the proper manner, Frigidaires load differently than other top load washers do.  The spin is 710 rpm and with the solid tub this provides a very acceptable water extraction.  Frigidaires were noted to extract more water than other machines and in most cases had superior spin speeds.

This is not a 1-18.

None of the parts fit from this machine to a 1-18.

These were good machines, they have a dead zone above the top Cone, which was addressed and fixed in the 1-18 machines.

It is the last solid tub machine from F.

This is not the TOL model by any standard.

These machines are prone to motor failure due to the early clutching mechanism.

This being a 1966? model IT is on the CUSP,  one would have to look closely at the serial number to determine if this machine had the factory 'Sure-Spin" clutch upgrade installed!

If not then have him spin it dry and see if it blows a fuse, or better spin it with a full tub of water and see if it blows a fuse. Also be sure to unplug the machine and feel the plug prongs, if they are at all warm then you are close to motor failure with this machine.

 

My 2 cents $200 is very fair price for this machine.

SLOLID TUB FRIGIDARE ROLLERMATIC WASHER

combo52's profile picture
This one is new enough to have the improved clutch, the VD in the serial # tells us this. As Jon stated this is not the same as a !-18, For the 1-18 the entire mechanism was beefed up compared to the original rollermatics. Checking the prongs on the plug for heat is not a fair way to test for motor problems there far too many variables for this test to have any validly. I have never seen a bad motor in a solid tub frigidare rollermatic washer I don't think this was one of the major weak points. I would have to examine the machine to even begin to estimate the value of it. I could be well worth $500 or be worth less than $100.

"Veni,vidi..."

Well, I got to meet Dale and sAw the machine in person today. It is in fantastic shape and is clean as a whistle especially underneath the machine. Nor heavy rust and no leaks from anywhere. The tub bolts have alomst no visible rust or corrosion and except for buildup of maybe fabric softenerin the cone under the agitator cap, there is not sediment or lime buildup anywhere,

It sure is funny how small a 12 lb basket looks compared to the top loaders today!
He said it does spin the clothes nearly dry.
He offered to connect it outside the garage but I did not have time today.

He knows he is asking alot for it but he feels like it is like a good old car and that it has appreciated in value since it was new. I think he will take less for it as time goes on and I explained that there may be many collectors out there but none close enough to spend 500 bucks and then have to get it or ship it.

I would like it myself, but not for that amount but I would definitley use it more than store it as a showpiece at least until I can judge if it cleans better than what we use now.
I took some pics with my phone camera so the quality isn't the greatest. But I think you will see how clean it is. Sorry if some of the boittom shots are at weird angles. This is the first time I got this close to this kind of washer.

There is absolutely no rust or even dust under the machine. I really wish I had the time to see and hear it run but had to get back to work.
This is the only blemish on the machine and a little bit less on the opposite side of the control panel. Cam from boxes stored on top of the unit.

If you want to purchase the machine, then keep and use it for a while, I will agree to purchase it from you when it is ready to move to ATL.  We can work out the specifics offline, if you like.

joelippard's profile picture

are going to work on getting this machine.  A few words of advice on it.  I would remove the top and clean around the ring of the outer tub because that area gets dirty sometimes and can't be seen without taking the top off.  Those rubbed areas on top of the control panel can be easily touched up using a white paint marker.  Hope this will be helpful to you all.

Great shots Steve!

jetcone's profile picture

Machine has gone up in value! I can see either it was a lo-use machine or a non stressed machine! There are no scuffing or rub marks on the spin and agitate rollers from the urethane inter-rollers!

 

If this had been overloaded or stressed you would see burn marks on the aluminum rollers.

 

Add $200 bucks to my estimate!

I am sure glad that someone in the group got this machine.  I would have liked to have it, but truthfully, it wouldn't have been connected fulltime and that would have been a waste.

 

I sure hope you can take some high-def videos of this machine and archive to Youtube.

 

I have thought about putting together a dvd of my SQ machines and uploading the iso image to a file sharing site so anyone could download and burn their own copy.

Congratulations Mark you should enjoy this washer and from what I can tell it is a very fair price to pay for this machine. There may not be another machine in this good a condition anywhere and you can't put a price on something like this.

as my name says i love rollermatics! have rebuilt 3, working on #4 this year. your's looks like it won't need much attention at all. water bellows are still available and oil too if you ever need them, although only one of the 4 i have torn down have needed a new bellows. they will hold up fine if no pins or nails etc. get into them. and tub seals seem to last forever too (at least on mine) cause on a rollermatic the water level never gets high enough in the outer tub to cover the main tub seal anyway. so they are not subject to the extent of corrosion and wear that a 1-18 or other perforated tub seal would endure on a constant basis.

enjoy it and lots of pics please!

Loads Of Thanks Guys

This will be the 2nd piece in my new collection along with my 49 Bendix which I found here which is coming along I hope to have pics of that soon.I will be cherishing this machine for many years to come.When it is finished the Frigidaire will go in the washer room in my new house patterned after the ones of club members I have envied here.When I began servicing washers over 30 years ago I used too see 6 of these a week,they were everywhere but I never saw one that looks or works like this one.I used to take them home and play with them but everyone I got was making all kinds of noise.For now I will only use it to watch it run it wont be a daily driver I have my Maytag Ineptune for that.(Paid 50 bucks for that brand new 10 years ago at a warehouse wasnt supposed to work but did)Also its a good thing I still have my 2 frigidaire repairmaster books I got when I was 14 in 1976.One cold Sunday afternoon next fall when the patriots are losing a game I will turn off the 35 Mitsubishi console tube tv I am watching (whole other subject and website dont get me started) and watch this washer run instead.The only real problem I may have then is I will have to change my user name to RollermaticMark.

too much snow hoho

Hey Eddie.I am going to have to postpone pickup of the beautiful Frigidaire in New MyrnaSmyrna Beach Florida until March as my house is surrounded by three feet of snow and I am afraid if I do it now when Microship comes there will be a blizzard that day placing the delivery in JEOPARDY!(Alex,I will take classic washer disasters,for $500)
