She is a Singer 128, which is a 3/4 machine. she is in pretty bad shape but won't be when I get my hands on her. She has what is called the La Vincendora decals with a grape vine and leaf motif pressed into the face plate.

Now..if one of you fine ladies would point me to the receipe for the cleaning stuff...I will be ready when she gets here!
Great machine, can't wait till you clean her up.

There are several parts to cleaning your machine SEW, do a search by typing in 'Cleaning Your Vintage Sewing Machine'. It will bring up all of the threads for cleaning, plus other related topics. :-D
