Works beautifully except for the bobbin winder I broke while cleaning her.

Isn't she a beauty. Haven't named her yet. :thumbup:

WOW! FedEx dropped one of these beauties off for me yesterday. My plans are to do a handcrank conversion so I can sew anywhere anytime.

Billy, I am thinking the side clamp you are talkin about if holding the needle in place. Mine needs for cleanup but the decals are in excellent condition. These machines are more like works of art. The time was when I wanted the newest best machine, then I lost my vintage Viking, now I have 66's, 99K's, 301a's, a 252, 457, and 6460, almost forget my 221 and treadle. Thanks for starting this. It should prove valuable to these and us oldies (opps, vinage) but goodies.
