Well they did list it in the free section. People usually do that when they just want something gone. I got a really nice A502 Highlander that way out of Santa Monica.

Rossmoor is too far to attempt making the trip in the '50 GMC, or I'd be going after it.  So close, and yet so far away.

. . . that if nobody can get there in time, member-in-self-imposed-exile and serious Maytag man qsd-dan is watching the CL ads and will pursue this machine.  He's just down the road from where it's located.

Here's my truck.  It made some runs up to Oakland when Nate lived there, but Walnut Creek is almost twice the distance and the most direct route involves some steep grades.

And it has -- including a two-door monitor top -- but in recent years only within a 40 mile radius over flat terrain.  Just within the past week I've detected a noise that sounds like it's coming from deep down inside and it has me concerned.  All I can do is keep driving it and see if it worsens to a point where it can be diagnosed.

For those of us late to the party.... what WAS this machine?   From the "Maytag man" reference I can only assume it was a Maytag, but a Maytag what... since no one listed any specifics?

Correct! It was an A806.

Thanks Todd and Dave for the info.

Todd I sure you posted the link correctly, but as the machine is now gone / no longer available, the ad has been deleted.

This is why I post a photo from the ad, so after it's been deleted "we" can still see what was being offered (for the archives).
