Cool Dominion Washer
Wow Paul you have come up with a washer I have never seen, worked on, or have any parts for, LOL. And other than a few common parts like the inlet valve it does appear to be a unique machine that was not made by one of the big manufactures that most of us are already familiar with.
That mechanical thing in the corner would be an unbalance mechanism, as Jon already pointed out. I would diffidently get the belt turning freely before you continue to try to make the motor run, if you think the capacitor is bad just jump it by connecting the leads together and see if the motor runs, then you know that it is bad.
I would guess that this washer was made from about 1958-1963, you can probably find a date on the inlet valve.
