That washer is a suds model. Both machines look to be in decent shape. Somebody needs to get these.

Cannot Imagine

Why anyone would part with this great set.

Because they want to joint the 21st century.

15 pretty little Maytag buttons! Count 'em, 15!

Oh if this was one of the first generation of Washpowers (or a Cordoba Copper pair), I'd be all over it. I already have an Avocado pair and I'm saving my money for an elusive 906.

Ovacado 806's was a grand a piece when new? Hmmmmm..........

Saved! I picked them up tonight.. It was a short 1-1/2 mile drive as well.
They are in top condition as stated. The washer was made 10/70 and the dryer 3/69
A nice match for my 1968 home!

I bought them from the Grandson of the original owner.. She rarely used them, as she preferred using her Maytag Wringer washer instead!
