closer look...

Hard to say from just the one pic - I think it looks like the agitator in that ol' girl is slightly off center - the former owner probably overloaded all the time :(. Bet the dryer only needs a new heating element and a good cleanout of lint. At least it looks like they were in a dry environment...
 
Straight or Ramped

This is probably a straight vane agitator model, right? 3 or 4 vanes? Wonder if it has the mini basket...

This pair is being offered by the University of Georgia, no explanation as to how they've been used these 30 years...

The washer is a WWA8450 (extra large capacity, infinite water level control with mini-basket, 5 programmed wash/speed wash/rinse temp combinations, bleach and fabric softener dispensers).

The dryer is a DDE7500 (standard capacity, automatic dry control, 4 drying temperatures, optional extra care, optional end of cycle signal).

No console lights, no dryer interior light.

These are in the "fresh avocado" that GE introduced in 1977 with their "New Naturals" colors, but did not make it into the 1978 catalog. So I am assuming that these are 1977 models.
