It's easy to see why it fell out of use - at 48 amps it must cost a fortune in electricity to turn on, not to mention the problem of installing a 115v circuit capable of delivering that much current!

48 whopping amps!

Even the Unimatics only pull 26 amps in spin! That would make a great parts donor.

OK now, they left out the decimal. And the photo shows the rusted midplate and subchassis that is characteristic of Easys that weren't well cared for. Those were painted not porcelained.

It would be one on you guys if the mechanism was perfect and the whole thing could be restored with a can of spray paint. There's not even an asking price.

Not that I'd be that adventurous, but you know, many here have turned rustbuckets into gems.

I don't see the faucets, suggesting this is a ~1 model. If you've got to remove that much rust, might wait for a ~2 or ~3. But who knows? This transmission might be in better shape.

Or not.
