Thanks - that was my late mother's Singer Slant-O-Matic 403 Special. I sewed on that machine all thru jr & sr high. Moved out, got myself a Kenmore & never really liked it. When Mom got sick, I sat down at her machine to do something for her & I was home again! She said that day that I could take the machine if I wanted to. (She was bedridden with terminal cancer). I told her I would wait, but bringing that machine home to my house was a bittersweet bright spot after her passing. I can't sew on it without thinking of her using it for 45+ years.
