Beautiful!! That was my first vintage machine, also. It's a model 66 with the Red Head or Red Eye decal design. Here is a video showing how to thread and use that model.

In the video she also explains why there are a lot of 66's, out there, that are missing the bobbin slide plate and also explains the way to get them back on. good luck!!
