Help! I decided to buy a vintage machine to have a bigger throat space instead of spending $1000 on a new one. so can anyone tell me if these are good machines and if they are worth the price? I found them on craigslist:

this one is a Kenmore Ultra-Stitch 6 Model# 13401 and she is asking $25
http://charleston.craigslist.org/hsh/2464307647.html

price includes the table and directions

this on is listed as an Antique Singer model #AJ436211
http://charleston.craigslist.org/atq/2513785526.html
she's asking $75 for this one and it has the table and parts

I looked at a vintage singer in the cabinet that had the "fashion discs" for different stitches but they didnt' have the discs or the darning plate and said they would take $50 but i passed since i wasnt sure if i could find the parts.

so what do you all think? was it stupid i passed on the singer? what do you think about these other 2? does it look like i could quilt a twin quilt on either of these?
