My Estate sale finds for the week. This had to be one of the last true Norge built solenoid brake machines as the design was changed going into the nineties eliminating the brake for neutral drain. This example was built in 1988. It still washes great but there is a lot of horizontal play in the top transmission shaft and there is some oil pooled around the bottom seal although there was none on the floor and this washer has been in the same spot since it was new. Nothing really special about the dryer other than it being a mid seventies survivor. This would be the only magic chef allowed in the collection.

If you’re able to zoom in on picture 12 you may be able to vaguely see the words underneath the wash, rinse, agitate, and spin columns. Only one word in each column is lit up in the old digital green color at once for the cycle configuration selected. The words are not in very large print. I tried to take a picture in the dark but couldn’t get a clear picture. I may have to try again.
Cottons and linens: Color fast lights up hot wash warm rinse fast agitate and fast spin. Non color fast lights up warm wash cold rinse fast agitate and fast spin.
