Can anyone post a picture of a mid to late sixties/possibly very early seventies GE V12 Filter Flo Washer. This was my nana's machine, and I remember when it would spin she would have to actually hold the machine in place at times, as we lived in a second story apartment. I remember the machine had three rocker switches on the left, a dial in the middle with the V12 logo above it and the timer of course on the right.
The General Electric logo was on the left side. Thanks to anyone who can post this. It would bring back alot of memories.

my mother had a V12..1964....plain jane.....not a solid tub...2 rocker switches on the left one for wash temp (hot or warm, all warm rinses) and the other for load size (6 to 12 lbs was large, under 6 lbs was small)....horizontal gray stripe across the control panel with GENERAL ELECTRIC printed and the GE emblem in the middle, V12 underneath, and the timer on the right side, ONE cycle, push in and turn to the DOT, this was a 12 minute wash, how simple was that?....only time you had to put the lid down was for the spin......that machine lasted for 20 years, only needed the trans boot, and fill and drain hoses, water valve got dirt inside once and stayed open and flooded the floor...amazing device inside that lets an overflo condition to spill on the floor without damage to motor or wiring.....nothing would kill this machine...


other models had 2 or more cycles, and 3 or 4 rocker switches for speed selection and suds saver I believe.....

nice memories of a machine I should have kept....who knew?

Earlier than you named, but familiar layout.
