Hey very cool. I think those were mid-60s. Looks like it will need some work but hopefully it will clean up nicely. |

Hi Nathan, That Whirlpool looks pretty fancy to me. The ag does look Wp 50's style, but no doubt early sixties too. Early this summer another member told me that ymi is part of the serial # on Wp, maybe the same for exports? Darrel |

The Machine has a metal suds diverter, with a huge fabric wrapped solenoid on top. Most whirlpools Ive seen by this stage have had the diverter valve bypassed as its usually sprung a leak. The pump has been replaced with a modern 4 port plastic pump at some stage. Hugs Nathan |

Hi Gyrofoam, The Magic mix cap is there, it was just out of the machine so it didnt get lost/broken in the move. Its a solid chrome surround with a glass insert. Most of the bristles still point down, and it was nice and clean, unlike some of the newer ones I've seen. |
