The only name on the washer is "Signature 2000". Easy to recognize this as a WCI product, but I thought "Signature" was part of the MW line of goods. No mention of MW however.
$125 in Pensacola, FL

I'm confident this is a Wards machine. The panel looks a lot like its predecessors made by Norge when Norge was still Norge.
Maybe toward the end of the line they decided to drop the Montgomery Ward badging, assuming that if people were inside a Wards store and purchasing a Signature, they knew what they were getting into. |

Wards did the 2000 branding like RCA was doing in the late 80's with their Colortrak 2000 line of Televisions. Pontiac also had a 1982 2000 J car, then added the 2000 Sunbird name in 1984. |

but my 1987 RCA Colotrak 2000 26 inch stereo monitor receive did. It still works. The start up circuit had to be repaired in 1999, but no other problems. We don't really watch it anymore. |

RCA had the 2000 (or Two Thousand) back in the late 1960s. I used to have a Colortrack 2000 which my parents bought when I was 8 in 1985, they later gave it to me and I gave it to friends about 10-12 years ago. Their kids used it for video games.
Here are some pics of the 1969 Two Thousand.
