Update for Melvin
I finally had a chance to pick this up this past weekend. Haven't had a chance to do anything with it yet, but it's certainly not a non spin issue.
Because it's cold up here, I brought RV antifreeze to put in it before we moved it out of the basement. It still had a good 4-5" of water in it, so we moved it to get that out before putting in the AF. It took an extraordinary amount of time to pump out that relatively small amount of water, so that's obviously the reason for the no spin.
Now I just have to figure out the cause of that. I'm hoping it's something as simple as a sock or something made it's way into the outer tub and is blocking the drain port. That's not my usual luck however to have things go that well, but it's nice to dream.
Anyway Melvin, once I figure out what may be going on with it, if something happens that I decide to NOT keep it, I'll gladly hang on to it long enough for you to arrange a freight service, if you were still interested. It's such a unique style that it needs to end up somewhere that it will be appreciated.
