That 40-incher....
....Is a screaming deal for someone who can handle Coppertone. I find it too difficult to keep sparkling clean; it shows fingermarks worse than stainless.
The companion oven seems to have the lift-off liners that go in the main oven for self-cleaning, greatly easing the job of cleaning the companion oven. The price is very right, too. | ||

That roper is not worth what they are asking. 150 max. No griddle, single oven, not really desireable as a collector. | ||

That is a removable lower panel in the companion oven. The secret to keeping coppertone sparkling is that after washing and rinsing it and wiping it dry is to give it a final wipe with some vinegar to kill all tendency of streaks. | ||

Tom:
I know about the vinegar trick and it does work.
Until the next time someone touches the appliance. I found Coppertone to have the same problem showing fingermarks as stainless, only maybe even more so. When I left home, I didn't waste much time trying to acquire some of the glamorous Coppertone appliances I had envied other people - my mom was a firm believer in White, so the grass was copperier on the other side of the fence, right? Well, I found a Coppertone range and fridge and prepared to settle into glamorous bliss.... NOT. It was a struggle from first to last to keep the damn things looking sparkling. I rid myself of them at the first opportunity, and have tried to stick to White ever since. | ||

 That's a very nice range John!
I'm curious about the clock, it looks like a very early model from the first series of Compact 30 ranges (1962).
The range itself should be a 1975 RBE 533, a 1973-74 RBE3-533W, or a 1971-72 RBE-533P (the 1969-70 version had a different "lock" knob for the oven door, see the last pictures for the early type).
The 1975 RBE-533 (in which the "E" stands for "Electri-Clean") has the exact same model number as the 1962-1963 RBE-533 (in which the "E" was designating the production years), I'm wondering if the timer was replaced at some point and the replacement timer was ordered for a 1962 range by error!
The two first pictures show the 1975-style RBE-533 clock, the third one shows the clock on my RBE-539N (mine was made in 1969 but it's a 1968 model and it's almost the same as the RBE-533P but with the added Speed Heat and Heat Minder burners).
1968 was the first year for a self-cleaning Compact 30 range and there was just one model available which featured the Speed Heat and Heat Minder burners. In 1969, another self-cleaning model without the SH and HM burners was introduced. Both ranges were produced with minimal changes for a few years. | ||
