John, thank you for documenting the rebuild process. Great work!

One step closer!

And it safely made it to Alabama today, along with some other stuff as well!

All these wonderful, informative/educational photos of GE combo restorations and what sticks in my mind? The control dial on each showing an 8-minute maximum wash time, LOL!

Many of today’s machines with load-sensing protocols take nearly that long to complete the first fill.

As always, thanks for sharing your expertise of the process as well as the photographic documentation, John! I can barely operate a screwdriver, but do enjoy seeing what goes into keeping vintage machines alive and well.

Any full videos on a Combo machine?

Tomorrow!

I don't have the space ready to install the combo yet, and it's still at David's. I'm going over tomorrow with a plug and some dirty laundry. He's going to wire it up and let me play with it!

I'm still going to repaint it, but that avocado/harvest two tone is pretty dang cool!

Thanks, John, Tim, David--
and Paul, I'm on the fence about thanking you for introducing me to the appliance I didn't know existed but instantly knew I couldn't live without...

The dangerous Imperial forum

And, now, I'll be cruising the Imperial forum in addition to the Super. This could be trouble. I'm sure y'all will introduce me to a whole new world of must-have appliances.

It's a very natural and familiar color pairing if you're from a grain belt region!

And here we are

I might not be looking my best in my grubby work clothes, but the combo is looking sharp! Hoping to give her a run on a warmer day.

I can't thank you enough!

Why no reversing? Either way, love it!
