Impellor machine?  Nice.

Why do these never have the racks in them?  At least this one has the bottom one.

Impeller...

Yes, Westinghouse used a impeller into the 60s, and they were a good performing machine believe it or not...I would say this is a early 60s model.

Shame about the top rack.  I've had an eye out for one of these for a while now.  'Course I could probably drop the top rack from the Montgomery Ward's portable I have into this one....

The neat thing about this machine is the flow through detergent dispenser. Those two dots on the printed cycle indicate two washes or one. There is a little pipe with a 90 degree downward bend over the dispenser. It sprays water into the II compartment for the first fill then it changes position to spray into the detergent compartment marked I, It is one the front wall of the tank and has to be filled before the silver basket is put in place. Older models with a similar front did not have the detergent dispenser, but a round detergent holder made out of screen. It fit into a round loop at the 12 o'clock position in the upper rack.

This model had a separate electric drain pump which is why there is that little strainer in the sump.

There was a more deluxe model with the hot water booster to guarantee 140F water in the main wash. It had a little red sliding switch to the right of the door release to activate the booster.
