If am reading my wringer serial number charts correctly, that machine was "born" in Dec. of 1949. Maytag used aluminum agitators after the war until sometime in 1950 when they went to a red bakelite agitator. Also, your machine should have the earlier cast aluminum tub as opposed to the later spun tub. The cast tubs were considerably thicker and they hold the water hot for a long time! I have an E2L (no pump) from June of 1948 and it has the cast tub and the aluminum agitator.

Wow, already on the ball. That Model 31 looks great! Decals are available if you want it to look factory fresh.
Looks like your E2L is probably a '49 or '50. Your gray ghost with the non riveted tub is a Model 31 (if the motor is original) Probably a '36 or '37 as it's a later production model via the serial #. Engine looks like 92 to me. Your gray ghost with the riveted tub is a Model 80. Looks like a later model as well, given the serial #. It's probably a '26 or '27. Very nice lineup! You have the perfect set up too. One wringer/washer to wash and the 2 for rinses (wringers require 2 rinses after a wash). Your wife may think you're crazy, but wait until you start cranking out loads of clean laundry at record speed. She'll quickly grow to love 'em ;>) Here's a site that gives a bit more detailed info.

Like Stan, I'd like to know what type of paint you used. You've done a fantastic job - and believe me, I know from experience the amount of work it takes! I used Valspar paint from Lowe's, which I'm mostly pleased with - but it took about 2 weeks for the paint to really cure hard.
Hope you'll be posting some pics of the tub interior and agitator. |

I just read this thread again and am wondering how you did on the remaining old gal? Let us know, when you have time, about it. You did a beautiful job on the first two. Jim |
