The other machine is a Singer 66. Both are frozen and all the plated parts are rusted. But the decals on the 66 Redeye are very nice.

since I am going to try and get at least the 66 sewing again, they gave them both to me for FREE!!!

Oh well, more machines to clean and practice on.
Well, you couldn't ask for more. Great price. If you get them to work you'll have fine machines. You can't possibly fail - you can't ruin one that's already ruined. If you don't get it to work you have parts or a door stop and you will have learned something. You can always find the tractor guy... :roll:
