Maytag wringer Question

[shabby]

Really? I didn't check the serial numbers like you guys said to do. I was going by a notation in the Owner's Manual. Someone wrote March 13, 1964 $129.

I will have to check the numbers. I just got it home today and spent the whole morning cleaning it up. My husband thinks I'm nuts - but I love it!

I am so glad I found this board. Great info here.

Shabby, what a gorgeous machine. I love the square tub w/ ss interior. Geoff, the plate on the back is just a gray and black sticker. I'll look again tonight, at that white piece of art in my living room!

I believe that would be square tub aluminum, not stainless steel.

Super Thread 6317

Hi gang ... this is getting fun!! It would be great to figure out the manufacturing dates of both Bobby and Shabby's machines.

I'll go resurrect Thread 6317 in the Super Forum. Super Forum is where wringers should go. I don't want anyone to get upset.

I'll bring my book to work tomorrow if you guys post your serial numbers, I'll help with the dating.

Thanx, Geoff! I'll post the numbers in the morning.

I was going to sell this baby on Ebay but now I am thinking I'll keep it. Hubby is already finding places we can put it.

Nite.

I stand corrected, Fixerman. Aluminum is correct. It shines so nicely I assumed SS.

ill check mine too

HI guys, Great Geoff, I will check my serial numbers too to see when my Master was built. Same turquoise colors. I think it would be a riot to have a wringer wash in? Can't wait for school to be out so I can wash in the Maytag or ABC and hang the clothes out on the line. Thank, Gary

OK. The serial number is #287443.

The year is............?????????????

Hi Shabby ... move over to the Super thread #6317.

Shabby, that thing is gorgeous. Makes me want resurrect Freddie Mercury to sing Bohemian Rhapsody. No wonder why Consumer Reports christened it the Cadillac of washers. Five years ago, when the "Kolopinski Brothers Appliances" sold me my commander, Mr. K . told me that Maytag will make you a brand new Wringer Washer for 650 Dollars. Wonder if that's still possible.

A WRINGER WASH-IN would be fabulous.

Hi all, no, there are no letters following the serial #. Numbers only. It does say 745G in small script above the UL listing logo.
