All, and especially to Toploader....
The folks who said that dryer was newer than a '72 are correct. That panel design first debuted in fall of '75 as '76 models on at least 7 or 8 different models. They were made like that essentially unrevised in appearance until 1981 when the print style was changed but not the panel itself. The earliest washer I ever ever worked on with that panel was made in October 1975.
Here's maybe some good news for you Toploader: I have two white matches to your dryer and they need good homes. One is a 1977 model (which is great because they had the tall centerpost still) and the other is a 1980 model. Both are nearly identical except the '77 has a Penta-vane agi and the '80 has a DA. They both have 2.95 cu. ft tubs vs. your DD washer's 2.4 or 2.5. Both are 2-speed, 4-cycle (Normal, Perm Press, Delicate and Pre-wash), three levels and temps - basically about what you have in your current washer.
Neither have been used in many years, but have been in indoor storage. One I got from Sears when they were giving me and my buddy all their haul-backs, and the other was a neighbor's who was thrilled to give it to me when she replaced her dryer and got a whole set.
Because of the enjoyment I've gleaned from this site the last month or so, I have gone nuts with my washer fascination (which had been dormant other than doing my own laundry) since the later 90s. I will be trying to find good homes for all the belt-drives I have and would love for one of the newer models like these to go to someone who'd appreciate it.
It may be very wrong of me to post this suggestion here, and if so, I apologize. I don't normally suggest to people that they get my stuff. If you want, you can send me an e-mail and I can tell you more about what I have. I am not quite ready to start working on these yet, as it's still chilly here in Charlotte (it was in the upper teens last night) so my garage floor would give me a quick case of "numb-butt", LOL. However, once it warms up I would be glad to help you find a washer you're happy with that should last you a good while even as a daily driver...and you'll know it's been lovingly looked at by someone who cares.
TTFN everyone - enjoy the day!
