Sold Sorry, the washer has been spoken for. Thanks for looking.

Update It doesn't appear that I'll have a taker for the whole machine, so if that's the case, I'm willing to pull what I can off of it, provided it doesn't require major surgery, before the hulk gets hauled away next week. I already have inquiries about the dispenser and control panel, so if...
