WOW I'm drooling over that handsome Viking. Never seen one like that before in my wanders of the internet.
You rewired it, but looks like it could be treadle too- if you have treadle. That's a handsome machine!!!!
You did a beautiful job cleaning up the cabinet. I just love the look of the this cabinet and wood. How well does that Viking sew? It kind of has the look of the dark, green Berninas.

Thanks for posting the photos.

That cutie machine is a Singer 99, correct? Here is link to manual for a 99 from Sew-Classic, just scrool to bottom of page: http://blog.sew-classic.com/2008/11/...ne-review.aspx
