This is the 1959 Kelvinator in a testing mode. During this shot, the machine is in a spin mode, with both the agitate shaft and spin shafts in motion.
The tub is not installed, and a slight squeaking noise is present. I'm not sure if it is a dry spot on one of the shafts or a motor bearing. There is a loud vibration present as well - probably related to the tub not being installed. I still have yet to install the last part of the suspension - three long springs that run from the damper assembly to the outer edge of the frame/outer tub.
