Thanks everyone for the replies - I love this color and that is one reason that I passed up so many others that I saw on ebay and CL. It may not weight exactly 4,728 pounds, but it has to be close. The poor mailman nearly got a hernia trying to deliver it.
We haven't named it yet - we'll have to think of a really good 50's name like Betty Lou or something. My wife suggested Oda Mae - not sure if that's her name or not. I will entertain suggestions if anyone has any ideas. We also are thinking up names for the 3 Pfaffs. One of them really is from Germany, so it may be a Gretchen. I'll have to check the "made in" tags on the other two.
Cindy - I think this machine is capable of dropping the feed dogs, so it is able to do FMQ.
I still don't have any info on this machine. I sure wish someone knew something. I joined Needlebar, but haven't found anything there yet. For now I'll just have to enjoy the color and see how she works on my next project.
Thanks all.
Darren
