Before the Walterboro Salvation army closed they had a Frigidaire dishwasher that you describe Mike. The top was about 12" lower in the front that the back making the sides of a top triangular. very big and bulky The interior looked to me like a GE clone with a spray arm and tower. I could not tell you the year but it was rusted out pretty bad down by the pump well and the top was very flimsy I bet it was louds as all get out. Philippe |

The models you are speaking of were known as the FRIGIDAIRE Dishmobiles.They had models available from the Super to the Custom Imperial.Differences were Controls,racks,wash system(Super Surge with 7 bladed stainless steel pulverizer disposer built in)levls,and controls.The Imperial and Custom Imperial models came with a solid wood butcher block top and the Custom Imperial model had an optional 160 degree Sani Wash button as well as lighted cycle board to show which part of the cycle the dishmobile was in.The reason the top was lower at the front than at the back was two fold.It made it a lot easyer to reach the bottom rack for loading and unloading and it made it easyer to have larger upper racks to hold more glassware and saucers on models so equiped.The most expensive model (DWCIP)sold for about $299.they were available from 1963 to 1970.
