Mend Zanussi Washing Machine Drum Move

How can I get my washing machine drum to move?

Have a Zanussi Acqua 1000 front loading washing machine which has been out of action for 6 mths in storage. Removed the 3 transit bolts but drum will not budge manually. Any ideas as to cause please and repairs needed?

remove the belt TRY to rotate drum no luck suspect rear seal has failed and allowed water into the bearings causing the bearings to seize solid(6 months not turning ain't helped) to cure major strip job inner/outer bearing new spider and lastly possibly new drum i would scrap and buy a new one
