These are GE Filter-Flo machines in Turquoise. That color was discontinued on residential machines in the mid-late 1960s but I think coin-ops from some brands were available in that color a bit longer.
Still, if the lids and tops aren't rusted, I guess they could be saved! The porcelain finish might have protected them. I don't know if the coin box is mounted with extra holes on the top but if not, these could be saved to convert a white machine into Turquoise. |

The one on the far right of the photo reminds me of a SQ in the back. |

yeah, the two outter ones are Speed Queen machines...
still would have been interesting to see more details of these....Commercial filter flos were front serviceable, hence the insides were reversed.....odd the see the filter flo coming from the 7 o'clock position... seen a restored GE once at a place where I get used SQ machines.... |
