Well the Poppy Red Frigidaire FRAN ended up springing a leak and wouldn't go into the final spin dry. The motor would just groan but no spinning of the tub. I had to let her sit for a few hours, for the rollers to dry, so she would spin the tub.

So she was sold to a fellow washing machine enthusiast that is close by. And now FRAN has had another cabinet transplant, and a 3rd chance at life.

So I have some 1-18 parts for sale:
A 2-speed motor (1973)
A jet cone agitator (minor cone edge bumps) 1973
The CUSTOM control panel from the Almond Frigidaire 1-18
The Almond Frigidaire windowed-lid
I'll have to see if I have any other parts.

I wanted to let fellow Frigidaire 1-18 enthusiasts/collectors know these parts are available to hopefully keep other Frigidaire 1-18 washers bouncing away

Hi Christina, sorry to hear about FRAN. Do you have a pic of the control panel? Also, would you have a fabric softener dispenser?

Christina, I’m sorry for your loss of Fran. She was a beauty. Glad you were able to give her another chance at life by passing her on.

Sorry to hear that Fran didn't make it... Was it the tub seal that went?  That seems to be a common cause of leaks in 1-18s....

 

Would you happen to still have a the lint filter?  I'd definitely be interested if you do!

Control panel pics.
Also I don't have a 1-18 fabric softener dispenser. But I do have what I believe is the fabric softener dispenser for the smaller/narrower jetcone agitator, if someone is interested in that, brand new in the box?
I could never get it to fit onto my 1-18 agitator.

Thank you.
I had my fun getting to use FRAN and the first Custom Almond Frigidaire 1-18 washers. I never dreamed I would see one in person, let alone get to use one!
So I had my fun and am happy to keep other 1-18 washers bouncing away

Thank you for your message.
That's what me & Roger believe is what happened with FRAN, a tub seal leak.

As for the lint filter, FRAN'S lint filter went with her. And I never had a lint filter for the Almond CUSTOM.
So I'm sorry but no, I do not have the lint filter.

Such sweet parting...

firedome's profile picture
sorry to hear about it, they are such fun, but at least it was enjoyed for awhile!
We have a Harvest Crown W-2 '75 1-18 that sprung a leak as soon as we tried to see if it worked when we got it, so it sits neglected for now. PhilR and I made a 6 hour expedition to far Eastern Quebec to get a NOS tub seal from a closed FD dealer, so we do have the part now for when we can get to the repair, as well as a perfect tub to replace ours that has a chip and consequent rust in the tub bottom. Hoping to get it back doing it's turnover thing one of these days!

Roger, I do believe I have a 1-18 tub that will fit... One of the 'junk' machines rescued from Appliances Unlimited back in 2014 got parted out and I swear I kept the tub.  It's in the shed in Ogden and after today's storm I may not be able to get to it until July but please remind me about this, especially when I roll by to pick up that GE 'Holy Grail' dishwasher that you've been ever so patiently storing for me.

Sorry to hear of Fran's loss. It's been a hectic year. If only a vaccine could save these old appliances.

It's great of you to part this out. I'm sure Fran would have wanted it this way.

Thank you.
Unfortunately, the Frigidaire ride has ended for me.

When me & Roger brought FRAN home, she would only spin. She did agitate but would "clunk" down and freeze/get stuck. After removing the front panel Roger notice alot of metal dust in that center bowl. She cannibalize herself and chewed up some mechanism?

We did a Poppy cabinet transplant onto the Almond's base, tub, motor, and mechanism. So I was using the Almond 1-18 with the Poppy cabinet on it.

No more Frigidaire 1-18 washing is happening on this side. But it was cool & different while it lasted

So...

hippiedoll's profile picture
Here is the list of parts that have been spoken for so far;
1. The windowed-lid
2. The control panel
3. The jetcone agitator
4. The feet.

So if there are any other parts not mentioned that someone is needing, please feel free to reach out & ask. I just might have it.

Now for the parts that have been spoken for, I ask you members/friends to please be patient with me getting them packaged up & shipped out to you. But I will get them out as soon as I can. I will message you when I've gotten them packaged up & ready to ship out.
Thank you for your patience (without me having to go into detail).

Lovingly,
Me

In getting the wanted parts packaged up & in the mail. But due to medical reasons, I've had to postpone getting the Frigidaire 1-18 washer parts shipped out.

I don't know what exactly the original FRAN'S insides, were eaten up/grinded into the metal dust she had in the center bowl, or if that is where the transmission is located?
But if the transmission & bearings are good, when Roger comes, we'll check it out and I'll let you know.

As for right now, I am down for the count due to medical reasons. So please be patient with me.
Thank you for understanding.

I’m in absolutely no hurry. I have a 1-18 that very well could be parted out too but if there’s a good transmission out there then I might be able to save it. She can just sit there and be just fine. Hope you get well soon!

pulsator cap and bleach dispenser?

Mine just finished cracking and the cap pops out in the middle of the wash.

OR.....

A matching FS dispenser. (and the bleach dispenser cup as well)

All the agitator caps that I had, are gone now.
As for the bleach dispenser, I never had one of those for neither of the Frigidaire 1-18 washers that I had.
Sorry...

As for the fabric softener dispenser, I bought a brand new one off of ebay when I got the first Frigidaire 1-18 (Almond). But I could never get it to fit onto the agitator. So I believe it's for the mid-late 60's Frigidaire solid tub washer agitator.

Sorry I don't have the parts you're needing. I hope you find the parts you need. Keeping my fingers crossed for you...

I have a complete '78 or '78 1-18 parts machine that I got for spares for my '74 Gold Crown W2, everything except for it's former avocado cabinet and base plate.
Pictured stripped and with PhilR when we got it. Wish I were closer, I'd buy the entire Poppy cabinet from Fran and make a complete "new" Poppy machine!

if I don't follow through with my Harvest Gold machine - I'm getting old and energy is getting harder to come by - I'll be sure to let you know. I may even decide to let the '74-ish Harvest Gold machine go WITH all the spare parts as well, at some point, because at 70 increasingly I'm running out of gas, and I still have a car and summer house to finish yet. Last pic is bad seal. I have a new seal and a perfect tub to replace the original tub (shown) with a small rust spot too.

1-18 parts and machine...

firedome's profile picture
Chris... please eMail when you think you may be around. We're in VT a lot in the summer so a heads up well in advance is good. We're in major de-cluttering mode in prep to a potential consolidation and move up there, so both the complete 1-18 and parts machine, also a mint KDC17 with 2 complete panel sets (in Harvest Gold and Coppertone) may well be available... cheap!

You picked 2 of the best in town, Jim McCoy just closed Number 5 but his other place (also excellent) Lampy's, is now McCoy's Chop House, v similar to #5 foodwise. Cortese, another local favorite, is still going strong, we were last there a couple yrs ago.

It's hard to find bad Italian around here. The most famous one is Oaks Inn, the fav of the local mafia from the notorious 1958 bust that happened about 5 mi from there...the place still looks like 1958 too:
