Well I've got it apart, now what?

It is my '72 Vista

Although its a lot like most of the stuff I own, looks great inside and out, but never really works the way I want. I still love it, but my wife is always driving it.

Anyways, I couldn't find an o ring to replace the old one, so I had to order one. I'll hold onto the old one just in case..... So Saturday I can finally move it upstairs.

re: 72 Vista...

I think that's the model they had too! LOVELY example, is that original paint color? You could fool me that it is modern day gray....

All done - Thanks to All!

<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Thank you all for all the encouragement, well wishes, especially all the tech advice.  Its in and woo boy - it works magnificent.  Quiet, clothes are clean, and the ambiance heightened.</span>

 

<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Glad I joined this group!</span>

 

<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">ps, the dryer will be added later.  Have to run a new duct and reinstall the plug, both relocated by previous owner.</span>

That is a lucky washer to have found such a perfect home, and yours is a lucky household to have found a top of the line version of the best, most expensive washer money could buy at the time it was manufactured.   Settle in to enjoy many years of  the "thrum thrum" sound of heavy duty, high quality workmanship.
