For Sale, $100. May be able deliver on along front range for extra charge. Oven thermostat has been replaced with a work-around. Includes spare burners and unusual-size florescent tube.

This model has a unique feature on front right burner, to maintain a set temperate. I will include the .pdf service manual I bought at this site (If I can find it...) The fridge in the photo is for sale as well.

Don't believe I've ever seen that model....

I've never seen one in person, only in ads.

Frigidaire came out with "Tahitian Green' in 1966, and it was still featured in their ads in 1967. I'm not sure if they changed it to Avocado in 1968, or if they did so the next year.

Does anyone know what the differences are in the colors, other than name? They have different paint formulation codes, so they must not be exactly the same.

Frigidaire high fashion 30 inch electric range, this range had quite a few unique features. The high-level controls were very easy to use and see and keep kids away from the controls.

All fridge year top of the line range just had the automatic burner that maintained the temperature at this time the stove also has the Speed heat burner for the left front position that will turn red hot in less than 60 seconds.

Unfortunately, whatever’s been done to the thermostat on this stove would obviously keep the self cleaning oven system from working properly, Frigidaire had one of the best self cleaning oven systems along with GE Thermidor in the industry.

Other features of this range or the built-in exhaust hood that can be vented outdoors and the infrared warming lamps are built into the console that can keep food items warm if they’re placed in the rear burner area of the cooktop.

The stove is avocado green in a shaded color, the stove is probably made in 68 or nine.

I have the exact same stove that’s in perfect working order if anybody wants to buy it it’s here in Maryland. I have about $400 invested in it.

I saw this range at the 1968 Worlds Hemisfair San Antonio. Also had a variable speed Frigidaire washer and matching dryer too. All 3 appliances had the high-fashion control panel.
