This stove looks brand new! I feel like I'm cheating on our current '63 Frigidaire by eyeing this one so lustily, but damn it's pretty.
It appears to be an RDP-38-59. Hope this finds a new home! I wish it could find a new home here. :D CLICK HERE TO GO TO bluejay's LINK on eBay |

I can't believe it didn't sell for that very fair price of $100. |

It's listed again. It has about 6 hours left on it. $100 seems more than fair for this.
I'm honestly surprised more people don't go for these vintage stoves; they're so much better built than new ones. Sure, they aren't self cleaning, but in all honesty, I haven't done anything to our stove that makes it a nightmare to clean. CLICK HERE TO GO TO bluejay's LINK on eBay |

I guess they don't fit well next to a stainless fridge and dishwasher or most modern kitchens. And for most people, delivery (even if it's local!) can be an issue when it's not included in the purchase price!
If it would be a Custom Imperial of the same year and within a few hours drive from home, I'd be VERY tempted to buy it!
I know there must be still some around as a few years ago, there was one featured in a locally-produced French-Canadian movie. One of my cars is also featured in it.
Here's a still from it: |

I was there 3 days and my car was seen in just two or three very short scenes! Here's one of them! In another scene, it was shown in two different locations in the same scene! This post was last edited 10/13/2013 at 17:35 |

I dont know why, but the one I had did not have it...its great as long as it works, the one on my Norge works, but the "Meal Sentry" automatic ubit is an irritation,I would love to use one that worked just once. |

Strangely, I think that Frigidaire Canada went back to 5 heat switches on many ranges in the mid-sixties and all their free standing and even their Compact 30 ranges in 1967. At least, that's what my documents suggest (one single part number for all 4 burner switches on some models...). I currently have more info on pre-1966 models but I hope to find more about the late-production models soon!
I'll have to verify that as I know someone who has a late-1960s Compact 30! |
