I'm sure you can get the missing parts from Sew-Classics. I have a 27 treadle, and just ordered the front throat plate, a belt, some extra bobbins, etc. They carry most everything, prices are reasonable and shipping is super fast!

I have its twin, here only mine is in a treadle. I have too darn many sewing machines, but I'm keeping this one because I fitted it with a hemstitcher attachment and it works BEAUTIFULLY with a treadle machine. I have one for my 15-91's, too - but those are so darn fast that you're struggling to keep the fabric lined up while the hemstitcher is chugging along. Katie-bar-the-door! With the treadle, you can place each pierce and stitch exactly where you want it. 
I had hand-crank one with Rococco decals and in perfect condition, so I gave that one to a granddaughter. A second one with Victorian decals went to my new daughter-in-law. I'm still hoping to find a 28 with the colorful "La Vincedora" decals. Meanwhile, I keep buying them, fixing them up and passing them along to someone who will love them.

Ah Miriam, it's a good thing I don't live in Indy, any more or that little baby would go missing - she would trot herself right over to my house. 
Diannia, that's terrific! I hope you have a lot of fun playing with it. I love cleaning them up and getting them going, again - some days, I'd rather do that than actually sew.
