I'm beat. I'm exhausted. And I'm tired from driving all night.
More to come.

Very cool. Amazing that these things keep surfacing.
And are these keepers, or just have fun with for awhile and then move them on?
I'll bet it must be getting a little tight down in that basement of yours!
All the best,
Patrick

Ben!
Obviously, you've been a very good boy. The vintage gods are smiling upon you. Now, don't tease your friends...

Hey, we're lucky Ben had enough energy to take even one pic and upload before he keeled over. Thought it was ONLY another TOL GE until I saw the lid within the lid in the dark. The great fortune of the great Iowan. So satisfying.
Your day will come, Andy.

Let's go Ben! Sleep can wait, the story please!

Question: When you shake 'it', should 'it' rattle or not rattle from left over debris?

I hope THAT is all that is an issue.
Grab a couple of bottles of vinegar, a tub or bucket large enough for the dispenser, fill the bucket and immerse the dispenser fully, cover, and let soak for a couple of days and it should clean up no problems.

Wow - that's worse than I'd imagined they would be. It's helpful if it hasn't been used for a long time and everything is dry, easier to chip and scrape away...

Well I'm hoping you can clean that out. At least you have the dispenser!

GE Dispense -all
WOW they have some seriously hard water, don't people buy water softeners anymore? This was often even more of a problem with GE FF washers as they used more wash water than most washers and users just wouldn't use enough detergent. The good thing about plastic parts is they clean-up very well.

Well.... here's a picture. Watch out, she's flashing you!
One of the cleanest bottom-sides of a GE I've run across.
(I've been busy this weekend. Hopefully more to come tomorrow night.)

All I can say is that I agree with Combo. You better change the code and beef up the security system on that basement...
Holy cow, you weren't kidding about the state of cleanliness under there! I can't really remember that last one that didn't have some kind of schmootz under the skirt. WOW! You gotta shoot video when you can...

A clean bottom is always good!
.... and SCENE.
But really, no cobwebs? Did you pre-clean, and then photoshop?
Did you take out insurance on that YET?
Is there any oil spun off on the side walls? Or black staining from the pump?

I'll be honest. I haven't done a thing to the washer, let alone put a towel to it. Hoping to have some time to dig into it tomorrow.
In the mean time, I've been performing a chemistry project in the basement. Here is the before picture of the dispensall tank/pan. All I had done at this point was shake excess debris off of it before putting it in the truck. The washer came from a farm which was more than likely on well water.

Last night I started scrapping off any excess that I could, and ran it through the KitchenAid KDS-17 a few times. The remaining crap is hard water deposits that won't come off without some vinegar persuasion.
This afternoon I bought a 21 gallon tote and 6 gallons of vinegar. Time for a soaking! I cannot stand the smell of vinegar, so thankfully I had some chores to do later in the afternoon, and attended a hockey game after dinner with some friends.
