Hello, I found a vintage Speed Queen washer and a RCA dryer for sale. Could anyone tell me the approximate year model for each and if there's any parts availability whatsoever? Thanks!! | ||

The dryer is made by GE, so therefore same parts as GE and Hotpoint dryers of that time. | ||

Raytheon Washer
Your washing machine is identical to one that I just picked up recently. I unfortunately lost the lid to my machine on the way home as it had a broken pivot that I was unaware of. My machine runs flawlessly and I’m assuming yours does as well. I have no complaints with the quality of the Speed Queen other than the use of cheap plastic lid pivots, LOL. It is an early Raytheon made machine, likely early 80’s.

I had the same model of washer, purchased in 1991.
Junked it last year, mainly because replacement motor cost $300. When tearing it apart for scrap, there was a significant amount of corrosion, although I had no leaks. If the washer works, it is a good machine. Minor repairs OK, but not worth the effort if you had to go down to the transmission. I got about $22 for the scrap metal. | ||
