Restoration Information
If you have an aluminum tub and it is a one-piece design, it is after 1927 and before World War II. If you have a two-piece tub which the top is riveted to the bottom, it was made between 1921 and 1926. Maytag washers came with either an electric or gas motor. The ones with a gas engine are worth more then the electric motor machines. Prices start at around $25.00 and go up, depending on the condition. I must remind you that value of an antique is between the seller and the buyer, if you are both happy then it is a true value.
If your machine is a white steel tub, there are still a lot of people looking for them in third world countries or to use here. Maytag made it's last wringer washer in 1983.
Often you hear of an appliance that has lasted through generations of a family. Stories of a washing machine going from mother to daughter and still operating are numerous. When a product has performed well throughout the years, it becomes part of the family. It is no wonder customers get upset when they hear that a part is no longer available and a technician has recommended that they "Do away with it" and to purchase a new one. However, many companies are specializing in the NLA ( No Longer Available ) parts business and the restoration of older appliances. These companies pride themselves in finding the impossible and making an older appliance an Antique worth admiring.
