    My grandmother traded hers in on a new washer and dryer, about 1956. The Maytag dealer put her washer on display with a sign stating "Traded in on a new one after 50 years of service". She always claimed the original still washed great but she wanted a dryer. When they delivered the dryer they asked if she would like to trade for a free washer, and my grandfather said "if you guarante another 50 years of use" and they agreed. After they both passed my Aunt took them and got another 12 years of uninterrupted use.

    You don't know how much anxiety I was having while you were trying to decide whether or not to take the washer. That thing is AWESOME! You should Google how to contact set mangers for TV and movie productions. That's something they're always looking for, to use in shows of that time period. There are some pickers who make ALIT of money just looking for items for them! Or...you could ck eBay prices and sell it on Facebook marketplace or an antique store.

    Hi Paul just wanted you to know that you have inspired my son and I to scrap, but we are in a position where we can micro scrap we find appliances older TVs and electric motors all the time so we are starting to melt it down and make ingots and 10%of our profit we have decided to try to help needy families in our town. We aren't far from you either we are in Rockford , Illinois . Thank you and peace be with you.

    Ah Paul! Looked up “sold” prices on that Maytag. OMG!! $250. to $495. If you can wait for the right person wanting one you can make a pretty penny. Do you have a Maytag/appliance shop in your area or even a laundry-mat? May want it simply as a conversation piece in their store window. It would make up for loss of income from bikes, grills and lawnmowers you will not have this winter. Go for it! SCORE!!

    We used those ringer washers well into the 80's on tugboats. Some had DC motors which was handy if you worked on a DC boat. I remember buying a new one at an appliance store in Perth Amboy New Jersey in 82 or 83. It was their last one.

    Those galvanized tubs, especially uniquely shaped ones, are very popular and $$.

    Antique day today, Paul! I learned what why the rollers are called a mangle as a kid when my fingers went in with a sheet I was feeding into it.

    YOU! Are amazing. I love your prayers to God. I’m stuck in a nursing home due to medical problems and your prayers inspire me to stay strong

    Rough day - physically and mentally exhausted. Needed something to lift my spirits and what to wondering eyes should appear, but a new video from the Scrap & Pallet man my dear.

    My Nan was still using a similar machine to the Maytag back in the 80's. I was 5 years and older and used to love helping her wash.

    So glad to see you Paul! Thanks for sharing with us. Hey, when are you going to do a GMAN 2.0 Interview? I know all of us viewers would love so see it. Add to your list of questions/things for him, a pic of his truck with the cats eyes headlights, and ask if the C-world has impacted his trash travels. Great to see you Paul, thanks again. 😘😘😘

    I got my hands caught in those ringers many times helping my mom wash clothes. Also, those lids were used for griddles while camping as a kid. Still camp ourselves but no griddle use anymore. Although, I believe I still have a lid in very old camping stuff.

    When you get your next ladder rack, I would like to suggest that you also put some steel j - hooks every two feet on the left and right side of the top rail. That way you have a place for the garage door opener and bed frames, oh, and bicycles.
