Well, not really a "sale" as they are FREE to who ever wants them AND comes to pick them up!
As you can see, they are a 1970's(?) Westinghouse Spacemate FL pair in coppertone!
WASHER: the timer works, it tumbles and spins, it needs a new pump as this one is seized (of course). When I acquired them there was 3-4 inches of water sitting in the washer. I drained out what I could, but some months after moving them to my garage, i noticed water leaking from the washer. I assume theres a small hole in the outer tub.
DRYER: the dryer is gas! It turns on, the drum turns, the solenoids on the gas valve buzz. I have not connected it to a gas line. One of the tumble baffles is missing, the temp selector knob is missing and the buzzer control looks to be missing all together too. The pull out "hanger rod" is there and pulls out too.
Between my busy work schedule and too many other projects I'm not getting to, I decided to let these go. Again they are FREE!!! They are in the Los Angeles area.

Very Cool Kevin, these would be the last WH branded machines, the next year the same pair said White Westinghouse on them.
I have the exact same pair that we need to sell except they are harvest gold and they are the next year machines and both say White Westinghouse on them.
I would have the parts that Kevins machines need if someone gets them, we also would like to find a good home for our pair if someone does not want to drive to LA. [ our dryer is gas also ]
