I have one I bought in 79. It is my main machine that I sew everything on . I free motion quilt very large quilts on it also. When I have taken it in for lube and oil change the man has asked to buy it because he said they aren't made like this anymore . It runs perfect and has it's walking foot built in, I have bought other feet from eBay that work great. I guess you can tell I LOVE it!
