Where did you hide the missing buttons? LOL! For a second there, I thought I consumed just a little too much Tanqueray.
I'm guessing this is a VERY early 806 given the 3 level water pressure switch and 3 button speed combo with a Permanent Press option. This early machine originally should have had the 2 piece baffled agitator. Probably got trashed during the removal process at one time. Serial #, please. A pic of my internally restored '75 Series 1 806 humming away as I type.... |

Fred, the laughter could only be heard by Robert, since the rest of us know better :D
This is one of the nicest Maytag washers to have survived - the most quiet wash ever! Didn't Greg mention that the previous owner had said that it was rebuilt recently? Either way, it is a FAB machine! IIRC the single piece Power fin was in place by August of 1967, in fact this may be one of the earliest Avocado machines as it replaced Turquoise earlier that summer. 1966 - 1969 Maytags = best washers ever.

There was a time Dear Fred when I could boast that Robert had a collection of 40's and 50's machines and just a few miles away my collection featured 60's and 70's gems. I have noticed some overlapping in the last year as someone seems to have wondered off the farm into the neighbors yard. Hmmm,,,not happy with ones own crown? Trying to snatch mine? Well it will never happen! Too big of hair to get at it, and it is held down with super Aqua Net...the pink can.
Of course I am kidding friend, glad you finally got YOUR dream machine! Now Robert can finally have clean clothes!!! |

Beautiful, love that washer! I found that 806 set at an appliance store (Maytag dealer) in Council Bluffs, Iowa, right across the river. They were beautiful when I found them, only needing minor repairs. The washer had indeed been rebuilt, it was done thoroughly and correctly, one of the cleanest I'd ever seen. The dryer is DOA, it failed while living at a friend's house and having one H-O-H dryer is enough for my collection so it convalesced in the garage for the winter. I'm sure Robert will have it up and running in no time.
I had a twinge of regret as another Maytag turned the corner to leave last Sunday, but I can visit them. Living in Maytag country can have it's boring appliance-times, but deep down, we love them all. (Right, Ben!?) |
