She is a gorgeous machine, and probably salvageable. These early machines were all mechanical and if all the parts are there she most likely can be thoroughly cleaned and oiled to make her purr again. There are also places to buy most parts. Lostn51 has done a tutorial in the Vintage Machines portion of this board. I followed his instructions to bring my 1925 machine (I'm guessing yours is about that age) back to life. Restoring the machine was really easier than I thought using the tutorial. Have fun with her.
