Older Kitchenaid Dishwasher

[GrouchieGrumble]

Hola folks,
Was sent here by a guy who saw my ad on craigslist for what I think is a 1950's Kitchenaid dishwasher. I work in real estate, and recently purchased a 1950's home from the original owner. The kitchen had not been redone as far as I can tell, but the only appliance that had not been replaced was this 1950's dishwasher... Any info would be greatly appreciated.

EARLY KA KDC-15

This DW would date from 1965-6.

Thanks! Anyone have an interest in this, and or parts from it? I have it listed on craigslist in Indy for $50.00 No clue if that is a good, bad or indifferent price... Please let me know if anyone has any interest. Unfortunately it will go for scrap price in a couple of weeks.

The "Custom" model was the bottom-of-the-line for KitchenAid.  Neighbors had the top-of-the-line "Superba" of this same series when I was kid.

 

It appears your machine is missing the timer knob on the lower panel.  I don't know how difficult it would be to find one for a series 15 Custom.

We still have the knob, it is broken, and doesn't like to stay on, but we have it.

Thanks for the info!
