Brawndo Plumbor
I like money.
Please forgive me if I am posting in the wrong location.
I recognize that the forums are not here for CLing items but since this is specifically a unique toilet I thought I would post here. This is a bit of an odd toilet that I don't have a place to use yet so if possible would like to find someone that would use it. I am not sure anyone wants a 3 gallon toilet. I believe I have the replacement parts for it too as I planned to use it.
This toilet is well made and of a design that employs the bottom of the tank as the seal and a different valve that seats on the tank has a very different design than a normal flapper. Not a common design. Perhaps similar to other 1960's AM std designed stopper but more custom in design still.
The toilet is well made, probably 3 gallons and is clean. It is white in color and has no chips that I have noticed. I have the tank lid too. The base is rather rectangular or pedestal like in design compared to today's toilets. I would like to give it away, and probably only a plumber who understands the uniqueness of this Eljer might be interested. I will follow the thread to see if anyone is interested in this museum piece.
The base resembles these toilets in the links below but I could not tell you what the name is truly unless its stamped on it somewhere and they look similar but I don't believe they are the same exact thing.

the tank and base looks to me like the orlando on the left to me : however the parts diagram doesn't show how the tank the stopper type of valve worked in there.

The hylando has a similar base too. This image shows a stopper design related to Eljer but as I recall quite clearly this particular Eljer has nothing other than the tank alone with its ceramic tooled outflow that was baked in a kiln into the tank. There is no part that bolts to the outflow as I recall. It is possible I am wrong but my brother rebuilt one of these exact models when it broke on him back in the 80's and he was amazed to find this was how it was constructed. The photo below doesn't show this feature correctly I think.
