Waste King
Ahh yes, that WK is a classic, one of the best disposers ever made. Its design dates from the late 50's, and was discontinued in 1994 when Anaheim bought Waste King.
I am hoping that the bearing is not bad either, you'll find out in a few days though, if the bearing is bad the motor will freeze up...
I have an SS5000 in my collection, never used, probably never will be used.
I can say if my plumbing permitted and I could have any vintage disposer I wanted, I would chose one of those old WK's in a heartbeat. They worked very well!
