2006 looks like its starting out well for quite a few of us, yesterday at the sales I found this 1961 Frigidaire Dishmobile, it was marked $20 so I waited until today when everything is half price and paid $10, I Love That!
Estate Sale Find, and yes its Pink!

What the, this is an improvement???
Here is the inside, but what were the GM Engineers thinking?? By adding extra plate twines to the upper rack they reduced the capacity for pots and pans by a huge amount. My 1956 model holds a lot more because of these are not there.

See with those in the way you cannot fit a large pot in this model, the rack wont close and the pot wont clear the roof of the dishwasher tank.
But I put these same size pots in my 1956 Frigidaire all the time and they wash great in the upper rack. I'm confused here.
Awesome find!!! Congrats!!! It looks beautiful!!!
Large pots fit great in my '56 with room to spare for even a larger pot. Maybe the were on vacation that week?
Robert, now THIS is the type of top rack I'm used to, your always looked strange to me. You'r looked sshallower to me than this style.
Robert, looks like you can slide the top rack in on the 1961 with the pot in there.
Nice score! Bethann ain't gonna be happy........

I like this DW but always felt it would have been awsome if they put a full size revolving spray arm on the bottom.

Nice score Robert! Nothing like bringing home the goods.

It may look that way in the picture Bob, but trust me the rack won't close. After I clear up the two major leaks the dishwasher has, I might try to modify both of the racks to make more room for pots and pans.

You're on thin ice mister, especially down there in Texas, one more crack (pardon the pun) like that and I feel a slap coming on.
