$250! For both, Washer & Dryer. Vintage Maytag Washer Mint condition. Vintage Yellow. Works perfectly — teal interior.
Model - GA510 Fabric Matic Extra Large Capacity
Series - 6 120 Volts

Was in a model home it’s entire life, barely lived in. It’s been used sparingly. EXTREMELY RARE FIND. TRY AND GOOGLE THIS; IT CAN NOT BE FOUND.

You could probably sell this for more, but I need my new washer & dryer in its place, just need the room, HOA won’t allow me to store this on my porch.

MATCHING DRYER - WESTINGHOUSE EXTREMELY RARE. Yellow, 1968 HEAVY DUTY Model. EXTRA LARGE Capacity, I have washed my king comforter in this set, and it was awesome.

Works perfectly, I have been using it since it came in the house I just bought.

Again, this was a model home that was not lived in. It was used for storage, so these appliances can be used daily or can be sold for way more than I am selling. Need room now!

They look to be in great shape, but unless they had been sitting unused for 40-50 years before the house was built, there's no way they're unused. Because that house is clearly at least that much newer than the machines are.

The dryer is early 70s, not 1968, also the MT is about 10 years newer so the whole thing sounds a little fishy.

Why wouldn't a "model" home have a matched set?

They are:

Nearly the same shade...

 

Though the "older" one is Gold, and the "newer" one is Wheat...

I was going to say, for a 'low use' set.....if the washer was matching, it sure wore out rather quickly...

Yep, the story doesn't add up.

Clearly the home is not that old based on the surroundings in the picture. Plus, what builder is going to use the same model home for 50 years? Doesn't make sense at all.

Why would a builder let a “model home” sit unoccupied for all of those years? Builders generally sell the model after the development has filled. If the set is 1960’s/ ‘70’s then that would mean the house sat unoccupied for almost 50 years. Or, who puts outdated, used appliances in a new home? Just sayin’. Maybe I just read it wrong.

.
So, the model home story is some kind of big conspiracy to squeeze a few extra dollars out of a W & D set? They’re really totally rusted out junk, despite images to the contrary?
