Default Is it a Rocketeer?
It is listed as a model CY 50-60 but I think that is what is printed on the motor! It looks like a rocketeer but not quite....anyone care to weigh in?

No, it's not a Rocketeer but I'm not sure of the model #. 326 comes to mind but not positive.
A Rocketeer is w-a-y cooler looking.

ETA: it's a Singer 327.

Those are neat little machines. Did you know it is set up to run on a treadle? It has little channels in side for the belt. Also, you will have to take out the little plastic cover in the lower right front.

I'm not sure what it is but it looks like you have most everything that goes with it.
