All right I was wrong. I thought you told me it was a d and m design. I guess I’m getting forgetful | ||

 PhilR has a Frigidaire top-loader that seems to use a D&M cabinet design, but it has the Super-Surge washing system. To the untrained eye, just looking at it from a picture on the interwebs, one might conclude falsely that it was a D&M build. His is a 1968 model - I'll bet by that time Frigidaire had abandonded the impeller version of their portables which were made by you-know-who. | ||

Facebook Groups Oh don't get me going about the vintage appliance groups on Facebook... I have left most of them because of the 'expertise' offered there. The final straw for me came several months ago in a group discussing washer/dryer combinations and I offered what I know from buying, restoring, and oh yeah, using the 1956 GE - I was told that I 'could not possibly understand the complexity of these machines'. My fuse blew and god help anyone from one of these groups who would ever dare ask me for advice or help now. | ||

D&M built Frigidaire model They offered that weird hybrid D&M model with the Frigidaire wash-arm in the 1967-68 top-load models. Everything above the pump housing was the GM style, but the housing I believe was cast iron and not plastic. Definitely the one that PhilR has falls into this category. | ||

Yes I agree That’s why I knew those later Frigidaire dishwashers were D&M built, the cast iron housing. The Tech Talk shows the different (from GM) housing. | ||
