Hello all! I have just received my Maytag model 142 matching washer/dryer pair in turquoise! Unfortunately during transport, the right side glass cracked on the washer (the side with Maytag writing). Does anybody know where I could find one of these? Thanks ahead.

What a bummer!
There's a guy on eBay that's been trying to sell the left side glass for this washer for six months or more. If a panel had to break in shipping, why couldn't it have been that side? Good luck with your search. There's an outfit here in the Los Angeles area that I'll check for you tomorrow, but don't hold your breath. This is kind of an obscure item.

I had a 906 set that had half the glass cracked. I was able to use a piece of plexiglass, painted white on one side. Might work until a replacement is procured.

I may have it, is it white with little gold spots or white with stripes on it?, I know that I should the answer to this question, but let me know and I will look.

Glass should look like this
Beautiful set of 'tags, Dan.
I struck out on that glass here in LA
Sorry, but it was worth a shot. Hopefully John will turn something up for you.

Unfortunately I have the glass for the later model A700 only ,this would fit but you would need to change the glass for the washer and dryer or it would not match. I do have both the washer and dryer glass for the later model so if you want to change it all contact me, I do think that the earlier glass looks better and if you are entering your MTs for judging you may lose points, LOL.

Way back in November of 2011
Marty(in Oregon) posted some photos he took on a trip to an appliance graveyard near his home. It seemed to me that I'd seen this glass in one of those photos so I looked up his old thread and sure enough here it is. It's not perfect, the paint seems to have faded a bit, but it's better than a broken one, and with a bit of effort it could probably be restored. Here's the photo he posted along with a link to his thread. Perhaps you could contact him about it. With any luck it'll still be there. I hope this helps.

Appliance Graveyard
I went on a lead today looking for a tub to pump hose for my 1950 kenmore. WOW! To my surprise, a good size appliance graveyard on the back of this guys property. Turns out this guy is wanting to scrap em all. I posted this because I know how frustrating it can be to find a dial or a hose or a...

Thanks for the help John, but for now I'll stick with the cracked one I have as I do like the color better. I will definitely contact you if I change my mind. Thanks again!
David, I will give Marty a try and see what happens. Thanks for digging this up!

Jon I agree I would try to find the original also, when I was looking at my 140S [ which also has your washers style glass ] it really is a better looking more retro resign that the next style panel. These older style panels are still around and with the help of this group you will likely find one, Good Luck John.

Resin for long crack repair
This is a long shot but perhaps something like this could be used to repair the broken panel.
