The Washer![]() Got the washer home and LOTS of cleanup to do. Washer is a 1-speed V-16 and while it is somewhat worn, it's mechanically mint! So quiet and smooth, nothing like the 86...
Fyi, the filter hose was completely stopped up, and after a pipe cleaner and a good flushing, all kinds of muck came out as seen here...

Nice find, Tim What model #'s are those? I remember seeing machines like these at the GE dealer near here back in the mid 60's. I'd possibly have been interested if they were the TOL models with the unique control panel style, especially if Turquoise, Coppertone or Yellow. The shopping plaza in your pic looks like Dillonvale on Galbraith Rd. Is it near where you picked the machines up? | ||

Serialz![]() The Washer model is a "1GA 550C3 Y" and it looks like the serial is "DG133 857(?)"
The washer plate was hard to photograph, the dryer was easier to read, The Dryer is a model "(XX) 520A1 W" with the 1st 2 digits not being readable and the serial is "TA202 249" I know they ar not the same age, the washer reads "V-16" and the dryer is a "V-14" with a green drum and horizontal handle. The washer's control panel is a victim of some laundry spray chemicals and it very fragile... May be searching for a new one as well as rubber feet.
