1504
Very interesting pictures Steve, thank you for posting. I don't think mine had any problem getting up to the spin speed but I don't recall a light in the timeline, which I think looks really good - looks like there is another small project in store.
And I believe yet another 1504 has emerged in Lincoln as well ....

Great pictures Steve will come in handy as they appear to be multiplying at a rate of knots ha ha....
just looked up the serial numbers in the one at Als, some 64, 000 after yours !!
Just goes to show "if it aint broke dont fix it! as the build was virtually the same from this series with the poly outer tub right to the end...

haha Thanks guys.
Yes it was the Lincolnshire find that prompted the extra pictures as better to create the record here than to have just sent them on directly- and a lot easier lol. I'm looking forward to some pictures of that one soon.
The lamp was deleted early on so mine was a retrofit - quite easy to do. The only issue I have with my machine is that my belt seems to slip a bit during drain and can't be tightened any further. Have not had any luck finding one of these chunky ones so far but it doesn't stop me using it.
I can't believe its 64,000 more either - I wonder how many of this model were actually made in total!

OMG ! Stephen, I'm speechless.
Congratulations, this is simply a fantastic find. So beautiful and modern!
It seems almost incredible that it is so old.
... and then those boxes of old detergents and the fabric softener ... wonderful
P.S. How long it takes to do a very hot cycle?

Love that NIB washer smell 
Beautiful pictures, it's fun to see them apart while still factory fresh.

Thanks for posting these really detailed pics Steve! It appears that Hotpoint made many minor changes during the first half a dozen top loader models before settling with the basic design of the 1509 until the mid-1980s when the controls changed.
1504s are elegant looking machines and it's nice to hear stories about them surfacing still, I hope I can get one sometime too!
All the best,
James
