This machine does have the motor mount..and came with a motor attached...(I took it off)
I just did a quick search on the 66-3 to make sure, and Billy's comment on page 216 is that the 66-1 is the treadle version and 66-3 is the hand crank.
Back clamp attachments tend to be pricier, but you can find them (if you REALLY need them--how many of us need more than the straight foot??). A lot of people switch the presser foot bar out with a side clamp from a later model 66. It's an easy switch--I've done it on other machines that have issues, but keep my 66 a back clamper.
