Hey Paul
Great Find. It does look Brand New. Let me know what happens. I am starting up an New/Old Restaurant so you won't be seeing any recent posts from me until September. Save me a Maytag A806.If you find one. Eddie

that is an extremely unique dishwasher
you have there! and from 1962, my favorite year of the 60's!
i have never seen a wash system like that before, thought there was some type of mini spray on the bottom as well as that central tube but i guess not. it's just a filter in the middle of the bottom?
would love to see more pics, close-ups of that center tube and bottom filter (i'm ready for my close-up mr turquoisedude)
that motor looks just like the motor on my 2 60's model frigidaires and it is still available, at least i know where a couple are. i might know someone who has pump parts for you if interested.
all in all a beautiful peice of early 60's history! and one beautiful dishwasher! amazing we can still find these machines! and it's 47 years old and looks like new!
congrats

More pictures next week, I promise!
Pete, please me know more about the pump parts! Are they also at Modern Appliance Parts? I have to call them - they may be able to help with the ongoing GE dryer thermostat saga and the Westy parts!
Supersuds: There is a very brief 'prewash' called a 'purge', followed by the main wash and three rinses. I can't remember off-hand the total water usage, but it seemed really low!

Yah, it could be called AWANON. LOL. That is a fantastic find, there doesn't seem to be a lot of GMFR dishwashers that made it this long. I can't wait to hear about the performance of your machine and Pete's GMFR. Even if they wash like sh**, who cares? It is still a part of appliance history and it's gorgeous! matt

larry at modern parts
showed me a pump and motor he has for that style dishwasher. at least he said it was for the oldest frigidaires that used a center tube instead of a spray arm on the bottom.
he has a ton of stuff and i did pick up a pump seal for my frigidaire, he has motors brand new too, still in orig box! if you need parts he is the man!
i prob won't start rebuilding my frigidaire slant top for a couple weeks here, want to get the g.e. mobile running first and the sears roto rack and the kelvinator. got parts for all of them yesterday.

i picked up a frigidaire service manual
while at modern parts house in parma. it talked about your dishwasher. it says the central tube will rotate at 600 rpm!
thats fast!
it says your motor is 1/6 hp and i thought it would be bigger having looked at a pump and motor for your machine while at modern parts. this manual doesn't really give a lot of detail but i bought it for the notalgia of it and if i find anything else on your machine i will let you know.
larry's number at modern parts is 216-661-6966
and if anyone would have parts he would! like said i know he has a pump and motor and attached drain valve.

By extension could add another name
Larry of Modern Parts in Parma, Ohio.
Was sad that what began with such promise as wonderful resource for NOS vintage parts, not to mention wealth of knowledge didn't end well as it might.
