Went to an estate sale Friday and purchased this abused treadle machine. She needs a total work over. Her case is a mess with large spots where there is no stain what so ever, and what stain there is has darker spots on it as if someone had varnised or shellacked it. Her belts are missing and she needs her tension cover replaced plus a total overhaul of the sewing machine . The base we already washed and found that there is gold on the name Singer and on the trademark on both side legs of the treadle. I would like to know what is the actual color of the stain is on the cabinet itself. According to her serial number she was born in 1911. She is missing a lot of her design on the machine from wear and not being taken care of. I do see what I believe you call the red eyes on the machine but most of the design is gone, So any help from this great board woul be greatly appreciated. This would be our first overhaul of a beautiful machine.
