Lead on Whirlpool compact Washer, old, info?

[panthera]

OK, got a lead on the same type of compact washer and dryer (Whirlpool/Kenmore) Launderess got this week. Thanks to you folks, now have the dryer manual.
Any ideas how to find the washer info?
Any help will be appreciated...I can't seem to negotiate Whirlpool. All I can get from their site is stuff from 1995 or so onwards and this is older.
These were wonderful machines, my mom has one of the first dryers from this series merrily chugging along.
Thanks!

Thanks, Chad

That is the problem...at least part of it. Don't have access to the model number yet...an would really like to know what is going on before it gets moved (prevent damage.)
The washer number probably starts with LCR...more I don't know.
For now, it would help to know if there are any special transport problems to be avoided. Best I could find sofar was, upright or on the left side.
Any help you can give me is much appreciated.
Thanks
Keven
(If I knew where to start looking, I'd be happy to look myself, just can't get anywhere on the Whirlpool site.)

Hmmm.. Uprgiht or on its left side yes. MD# should be on bottom left hand or right corner, on the back of the unit or on lip of the lid.
