Unfortunately this one doesn't look original. I see many signs of a bad paint job.

we had that very dishwasher for about a month...it was in a house my parents bought in 1978...it was so pathetic (my mom had a Kenmore from about 1967 in the previous house, and a 1955 James in the house before that) that a month after we got a KA 19? Imperial to replace it. i helped my dad put it in. It was the first year of the new KA design, and it wasn't all that...they remodeled the kitchen 7 years later and replaced it with a GE Potscrubber 980 (dial and passive filter) which my mom liked much better (as did Consumer Reports).

Holy crap. That was our next-door neighbor's dishwasher (diffrent color) when I was a wee lad, circa 1963. I remember it all now -- that three-prong control on the door and the cycle dial. For years I've been wondering what brand that was. I never saw it run; they used it for storage.

I Gotta Say It:

For about a decade, I had a custom St. Charles kitchen. For about thirty years, my mom had a Youngstown kitchen.

There was absolutely no comparison in the quality. My St. Charles cabinets never gave the slightest trouble; Mom's Youngstown units were forever shedding their hinges, or spawning new patches of rust, or whatever. Even the metal gauge felt different, lighter on the Youngstown. My St. Charles units dated to 1981; Mom's Youngstown cabinets were from '62, so it wasn't a case of things being better just because they were older.

I always felt that a Youngstown kitchen was more for the meticulous housekeeper who was more interested in a showplace kitchen than in actual hard-knocks cooking.

EDIT: I should have mentioned - the factory paint was obviously thinner on the Youngstown, and edges didn't feel as well-finished as they were on the St. Charles.
