Hoover VHC380 Dryer Capacitor change

Before I take this appliance out of the shed and smash it to bits with a sledge hammer, has anyone ever taken one of these apart?

The condenser model with an all plastic base, no inspection covers and a 3 sided folded casing.

Following some advice I now know how to start this job, if anyone else is thinking about buying a new drier do not buy this model! To get to the capacitor the entire front has to be dismantled then the belt taken off then the drum removed. Then you can change the cpacitor.
