The guy was Very Nice.
The woman that owned this I was told used it to keep her mail in it. Like a filing cabinet.

Back to the Garage
Going to do the Inspection.
I just know I'm going to find something.
Got that "Gut" Feeling.

Looks Like...
A chip from a broken bowl, some fuzz, and some... I don't know what that is. Feels like grease or something.
I have to clean it out. I hope there is No Rust by the Heating Element.

The Hydro Sweep is so New...
The little rubber "Nubs" are still there. I remember when I bought my KDS 19 in 1981 Brand New, it had this look

i am so glad you got that
machine! it is basically new, preserved all these years since around 1975! just waiting for you to grab it!
that rust is probably just a little surface rust, i have a bunch of kd-17's and not one of mine has any major rust problem that threatens it's tub life! and some of mine are not in good condition, definately not 'new' like yours! all of mine except the kdss-17a with the stainless tub had that bit of surface rust in the sump like yours.
100 bucks was a great price for a kds-17a in that condition. new like that 300 would not have been unfair in my mind.
as you probably already know you can get a pump seal from hobart, larry in cleveland has em too. they are readily available. it is my guess a seal is the only part for that machine you will ever need and probably not for about 30 years!
what a beauty! i was gonna call on it but i'm so glad i cannot! and yea, i love that new hydrosweep! i recently bought a new hydrosweep off e bay and they look so clean, shiny and black before they start to discolor from use!
what a catch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
