That’s an outstanding opportunity for someone. Finding a matching set that old in that apparent condition with only one prior owner can’t be very common.
Gas Dryer
When I first saw the dryer I thought it was Electric because I did not see the blue natural gas pilot flame emblem on the right side of the glass control panel. Then I saw the DG806 on the model plate and the access door. A gas dryer of that era had the little blue flame.

Early 806 washer and dryer pair
It might be the lighting, but the tub and the washer looks awfully blue. I wonder if somebody rebuilt the washer and put a much later wash basket in it, an 806 would not have had a blue wash basket
Gas dryers, with constant burning pilot lights unfortunately did not survive very well because of the Fumes from the pilot light the wiring in the console is usually in very bad shape on these unless you were lucky and they didn’t leave the gas on.

I have to agree with John:
That is not the right tub for that machine. It came from a lower end or large capacity commercial model.
