New fill hoses on the washers, new venting for the dryer. Everything leveled and working as it should. This is only the beginning... |

Jeff, they are beautiful. I have a pair that I am just getting around to cleaning up right now. They are my favorite vintage Maytag Automatics. |

Jeff ... FANTASTIC Maytag's!! Looks like you will be having years of enjoyment with these. AND ... you found a couple of measuring cups; how cool. That Tide with Bleach is just before they went "Ultra". ENJOY!! |

Wow, you guys got a lot done on Sunday! Good job on the install and the dryer vent - I'm glad I didn't see that, I would have needed smelling salts! All made worthwhile by the end result and what was behind dryer #1, Dynamo cups are very fun to find and a nice shape for measuring the sample of Tide that came in the Maytag ;-) Did you throw out the Extra detergent? Hee hee... |
