I think Goodman used to make Williamson furnaces, if so then I think Aug.'65 is correct.

Williamson was made by the Williamson Furnace Co, Norwood, Ohio--about 6 miles from my home. Went out of business in the mid 70's, I think.

They all looked alike, and I worked on them for years.

At least 35 years old...(not me--your furnace).

Somebody bought the Williamson name and changed the style in the later 70's--may well have been Goodman. That Model No. goes back to the 60's, though, according to my old documents. (Don't ask me why I still have them.)

Boy! They sure do get around don't they? Sort of like a utility baseball player--traded every year.

Is it OK for that furnace to be installed sideways like that?
