Here is another great machine that Kenny (goatfarmer) so graciously donated to the Texas branch for wayward vintage washers and dryers.

Midline 1976 Ge Filter Flow washer
Hi Melvin, I remember these machines well I figure the best era for GE was about 1968 till about 1980 for these washers before the quality started going south on the Filter Flow machines.
I worked on many of these, but I always refuse to sell rebuilt Filter Flow‘s. They were just too unpredictable to much chance of oil ruining the clothing walking, swallowing, small socks, etc. and generating service calls also couldn’t stand the way when they went out of balance tub with crash into the outer tub tearing up the porcelain on it. But definitely a worthy keeper, for a serious appliance collector, we have four Filter Flow machines in the museum project, the 1964 sink combination V 12, 1966 four-speed, top-of-the-line model, the 1977 Dispensall, Filter Flow, and last we have the GE spot scrubber.

I know this one well This model was the first washing machine that I owned. I really liked it; and had the matching dryer. Mine were white.
Correction - I just realized that mine had a third speed combination, so all three of the toggle switches had 3 positions. The options were N/F, N/S, G/S. The model number was possibly WWA 7070.

A nice descendant of my Grandmother's WA-730X. A two-speeder without a rinse temp option. And, as usual, one could pimp it up with a Spiral activator as there is no Mini-basket to carry here.

Thanks. While not an exact match I picked this dryer up earlier this year. If I remember correctly it was also built in 1976.
