Another question

This is a unit I may try to buy if they will take WAY less than asking price but any, it has the red safety bar and a turquoise agitator. Is this color agitator correct or is it a replacment?

Thanks

Steve,

If the release bar is red, and the agitator is turquoise,it is a replacement. That's very common with Maytag wringers, mine included.

September 1963. That machine would have originally had a black bakelite agitator. The turquoise polypropylene agitator that you describe made its debut in January of 1966.

How much??

How much should I offer for this J2L assuming it's operational? Your opinions are appreciated!!
I have not seen it in person yet but looks well kept!?!?

Steve

I'm just ballparking here, but i would say anywhere between $100-$150 would be a fair price for that machine. It looks VERY clean. But without the original agitator that drops the price some. Also it is NOT a pump model which would increase the price $25-$50. Visually, the rollers look good so that's a plus.

That's one of the cleanest J2L's I have ever seen!

Add a pump and you'll be in wringer heaven.

Mark thanks for all you knowledge. It's great when others take a moment to help others.

I actually had offered $120 for her and they accepted. The terms are contingent to my inspection as I have not seen it in-person yet. This is totally backwards how I would normally operate but I wanted to come to some sort of agreement prior to driving an hour one way with an original asking price of $500!!! I exchanged emails explaining why that was not a reasonable price and they asked me to make an offer...so did.

I'll see it Wednesday and hope it works as well as it looks.
