looking for parts
I picked up a Singer 99K the other day for $10. It is in very good shape except it is missing three parts. I know where to get one of the parts, but I can only find the other parts on one site and both are priced high (IMHO) and there is only one seller of each. So, I wondered if I could ask here if anyone has the parts (to purchase of course, and hopefully for less) or is there another place on the board I am supposed to do that.
I already had a 99-13 and the two important missing parts are not on that machine.
Thanks,
Jp

Hi, Here is a picture of my 99K centennial. It is the older style and there are no numbers on the tension dial. The stitch length is the large silver knob on the post of the machine. It is possible that your machine is just fine the way it is. Pat

I did look on Ebay, I did find them there but I felt the price was a bit high.
Fluffygirl-I have a 99 like that (99-13) but no this one has the stitch length adjuster, and the tensioner w/the numbers like this http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-1un42Sh4PW.../s1600/001.JPG

That's not uncommon. Typically, parts to make a machine whole can cost more than what the original machine cost. Sewclassic.com has some repro parts.

Oh my, if I had a 99-K as pretty as that one, I would be going nuts trying to find the parts you are not finding. PM me and I'll check to see if any of mine can be plundered enough to send you what you need. Is yours in a cabinet, or a carrying case? Get back with me; we can work something out.....
