A guy I know in the gay car club here in Arizona, had this. I asked him how much he wanted for it. $25, so I couldn't resisit and bought it. Here are some pics of it. The bottom side of it. A bit dirty, with lots of cobwebs.

The outside is not pink, but rather a taupe or gray beige. Ours had a matching tub gasket, same color as yours. The inside should be pink also. I have not seen that style Mobile Maid with the blue tub white rack configuration. Congratulations of your find. Ours washed a lot of dishes. Be careful with the Plastisol interior and the vinyl on the racks. If you see any cut or nick, touch it up immediately because if water gets under the Plastisol the steel rusts and the rust buckles the Plastisol. For repairing the Plastisol, we use two part epoxy paint like is sold for sinks and bathtubs in the sink and tub area at HD. For the racks, we use the two part epoxy glue that is thicker. If your racks are white you can get it in that color. If they are pink, you can tint it. You will need minimum 140 degree water for this machine to perform well since it loses a lot of heat through the single wall tub. The 5 rectangular openings at the end of the silverware basket enable you to put cooking utensils handles down into the abyss to wash big spoons, spatulas, etc. without taking up space in the upper rack. That's where we used to put the pump stem from the percolator.

not sure

I'm not quite sure how long it has been sitting. It appears to not have run in a very long time.

The 1960 "Golden Anniversary" model:

Here's an ad I just got for the 1960 version of that beauty. This one has the 'new' Power Shower (which we didn't even know we had on our built-in until we removed it), and my coveted accessory cup racks:
