    What a great find and in overall good vintage condition.  This is a very nice piece for its age.  It seems to be in its original condition as seen in the pictures.  Where will you find one that has so many of the original parts intact?  There are a few issues as you can see in the pictures.  The top is cracked and the washing machine mechanism is missing the agitator/tumbler.  Often times people get that part fabricated pretty easy.  The pull out wash tub holder/clothes dryer part needs tightened.  It is very loose and wobbly but intact.  The main machine parts are put together well and snug.  I did not alter the wood with stain or anything and the new owner can decide to stain it or put a lite oil on the wood.  No returns so please ask questions.
    I try hard to make sure buyers are satisfied and know the product they are buying. The pictures shows a similar item  as it is.  Shipping and handling is .95 in the United States-lower 48.  We will be packaging it very well to make sure it arrives safely.  Hawaii and Alaska is actual cost.   If you would like a different shipping method the buyer will pay the extra money.  You will need to sign for this purchase.  If shipping is significantly cheaper then I will refund you an appropriate amount.  I just want to make sure we have it covered completely.
    Questions will be answered in the evening-Oregon time-sometimes very late at night. Thank you for looking and please look for additional items up for auction. I have multiple items up right now. Thank you!
