Thanks
Sounds like its a 185J! And it is a 3/4 machine, essentially a 99 in a new dress. Be careful of the base if it is in the original case. They turn brittle through the years and if your not thinking you will pick it up and the bottom will fall out or crack on it.

Thanks for the info. It's in a cabinet. Don't know if we will get it or not still working on a price.
