Edited: figured out how to add pic,but its a download, so will do it when I get home, hopefully can get them to attach directly.

buslady, got to see the pic, looks like you did good to me. I guess that I'll call the guy at the antique shop and offer him $20 and see what he says.

greenini; I think the washer that you have goes on where the threads are, it will adsorb some shock so the mounting screw wouldn't vibrate loose. I've notice that some of the screws on some of the machines I have have a fiber washer on them.

buslady, do I get a finder's fee? I was afraid to open the picture for fear I'd think I should have made the short road trip to get her, but it's okay. She looks like she belongs to you.

I came across a machine with the number E143658 but can't find any info on model, year etc. Does anyone know what it is? I've looked on the usual sites to date with no luck.
Thanks, and so happy to have found this forum!

But she really loved it and I would take it to our bedroom and she would lay on it all snuggled up with just her little head poked out.
