Bel Air 600 - picture heavy
Well - went back and ended up buying her! It is actually a Bel Air 600 model. I think it is like a Singer 99. It is a belted machine. Actually the plate on it indicates it was made in occupied Japan - which intrigued me more than anything! It came with a bunch of feet, extra bobbins, and the original manual. It is in a cabinet, which I think will be very nice refinished.
She actually works, but will need a bit of work. The spool pin is missing. I think that if I intend to keep her electric, then I would definitely replace the power and foot pedal cords (and I would replace the light). And she will need a bit of cleaning up, some oil/grease - and I am sure someone to fine-tune her tension (probably replace the tension disk assembly).
I have attached pictures.
