Frigidaire washer lovers, I need some help. Another AW member is helping me restore a 1963 Frigidaire washer and I can see light at the end of the tunnel. I need a 1958 to 1962 agitator column to fit my new cap, rings and pulsator on to. No freebies expected, as I am wanting to pay for the part. Thanks to all who can offer any help in finishing this project. Tommy

Does anyone have these parts new or used? Willing to even buy a used transmission core for the parts needed. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks, Bud - Atlanta |

And "Go Back In She Did". I drove to Bud's and assisted/helped install the transmission. It was a beauty to behold. The pictures do not do it justice as seeing it in person. After about 12 hours of work and a dinner break, the washer was ready for a dry run and water testing. It passed all testing without a hitch. And the pump even got a makeover with a good cleaning and coating with POR-15 and a new water seal. We loaded her up and I brought her home. I installed the washer the next day and washed all the laundry that there was to do and even made up some loads just to watch this wonderful washer at work. Thank you so very much Bud, for all the time you spent in helping me restore this washer. It was a pleasure helping you and most of all learning from you.

Congratulations Losangeles/Tommy!
That is so cool! And I'm so happy that you got your Frigidaire all fixed up, back together, and up & running! Sfh074/Bud has an amazing gift reproducing the agitator parts and looks like he's pretty damned good at getting these vintage Frigidaire washers back to life! He is definitely a blessing! So happy for you! And doing the HAPPY DANCE for you on this side of the computer... :oD |
