1969 or 70 Frigidaire skinny mini
This was the first model they introduced, kind of neat that it’s the original. The bad thing is they made all kinds of improvements in that machine in the first few years, so it’s likely to have many bugs in it.
We have the same model in our museum, in avocado, but I Installed an entire new washer mechanism I didn’t want to deal with all the problems, and then I rebuilt the dryer.

I got.one recently (not here yet) I just need to open it and discover what's going on with it. It's spinning extremely slow.
Actually I haven't seen it in action yet, also, I've never opened a skinny mini to see how it is inside, but the previous owner (Kevin) told me it's spinning at average 200 rpm, barely enough to drain the tub. Clothes come out dripping wet.

Possibly loose belts.
Poor, spinning, Frigidaire skinny mini
The spin function is done entirely between the motor and a urethane roller. The belts are only for agitation, it’s certainly possible that the spin roller could be slipping, most likely cause our leaks from the pump seal, etc..
It’s also possible some lubrication got on the roller, which is not supposed to happen if you don’t see any leaks, try cleaning the rollers and drive pieces with alcohol.
