toilet. Now the wife has been after me to upgrade the bathroom with new floor,tub,toilet, sink....the whole deal which I dread.
Lately the toilet had turned into ol' rocky top starting to loosen up at the hold down studs and being rather busy yesterday I called a plumber
to do a quick fix.
When the guy came in and spotted that toilet his eyes lit up saying "WOW a vintage 1960's pink Eljer!!!"
Yes he was transported instantly to 1961 by my time machine bathroom. You would think he was laying his eyes on a restored 1961 Chevy
Impala 348 Tri-Power/4 speed!!!
The original tank supply valve on the water line would no longer fully shut off the water and was soldered on so had him replace with a new one that is screwed on while replacing the doughnut seal and new brass studs.
Now my wife doesn't have a real idea of what a bathroom make over cost nowdays but she got a hint when the bill for this repair was $374 bucks!!
Anyway I still have my classic porcelain throne and bathroom! I happened to Google my flusher and was surprised to see the pink 1960 Eljer
as a highly sought after classic selling for 400 bucks!!!
