Nice to know they can be "re-dressed". Thank you.
I'm with you. The repainted ones are gorgeous but a little too perfect for me. I still prefer the original old gals even if they have some "worts". I may be wrong but completely refurbishing a machine does it not take away from the original idea of "vintage"?
