My Golden 750 T &S is the second one in my album. Date stamped1985 That may have been repair date I am guessing the machine is older

I use a 600 almost daily, runs like a John Deere tractor. Bought it used from thrift shop for about $30 about 10 years ago--best money I have ever spent. Hubs takes it outside to clean and oil about every 6 months--love my machine ! Yes, no plastic gears on machine. You might try to remove all the bobbin area, clean, and make a few adjustments. also I find some of the bobbins to be troublesome. Before I load bobbin I take it apart and the screw it back together but not very tight.

Forgot, at one time there was a T&S group on this board--been a while since I tried to reach it though.

Yes, if I remember correctly, they are older than that. I bought a T&S 778 in about 1971, give or take a year or so. It was a new machine at that time. This T&S 600 says 7-17-1964 on the bottom of the cabinet.
