I'll be selling the 66, the two 99's and the 192, BUT I will be adding a 500 to my collection as soon as I can find one reasonably priced! I love the vintage machines because they are so reliable and I can do all the maintenance on them myself.
    I might have a 500A if you want to do some trading on the 66 and 99's

    I have my Pfaff 2054 for sewing (love it), the Brother SE350 which is a combo sewing and embroiderying machine (can go either way for backup), my new Brother PE770, and a White serger from 1980's that's heavy as a tank and stitches up a storm! I also acquired a Kenmore from a thirft shop (an 80's, and nursed it back to health - oiled it, was seized and would barely move). I wanted it for the manual adjustments in anticipation of free-motion embroidery. Love 'em all like kids.

    Oh my, wish I hadn't added them up. I had no idea I had so many machines! But...So many of them do different things. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

    Oh, one more...Storing for a friend in another state, a Singer 500 Rockateer. (Does that count? LOL)

    I have been buying machines left and right here in the last month or so and I am going to be reselling them pretty soon after I service them. I have several 500A's in the mix along with a few 301's, FW's, a 328K, and several 66's. The FW's and 66's are all getting the repaints on them and then they are already allotted to quilt shops.

    But since I am selling these machines and they will not live here for long, I dont even count these in my machine inventory.

    I have 12 in all - 3 are treadles (given to me free) and one serger. Best I can remember I bought only 4 of my machines & the serger. Can't beat that for price. Gosh Billy, I'm almost up to your count and 6 months ago I didn't even realize I needed this many machines.
