The Deep Action agitator can be fitted in the 9 pound tubs of 1958-62 washers but it takes a lot of space there. My 1957 Imperial washer also has this one but I had to modify a cap to let it sit lower as it would hit the cover otherwise!
The 1967 models changed a bit, the Imperial and Custom Imperial models had a rectangular timer, one Custom Deluxe model and the Imperial / Custom Imperial now had an infinite water level adjustment instead of being time-filled. Here in Canada, they kept being like 1966 models (all washers were time-filled, the fancier models kept the 1964-66 style round timer dial), apparently with some red on the control panel to commemorate the Canada centennial! (I still haven't seen one, I'd love to find a set of these someday!).
I've been told that Canadian ranges also had red oven door handles and people hated them so they were often replaced with 1966 chrome door handles (or maybe the red trim could be peeled-off?)!
Here's one of Greg's pictures showing a 1967 Custom Imperial.
