These machines take an obsolete needle (Kenmore #49 or Boye 2 1/2) and a bobbin the same size as a 221.
Here's a pic of mine naked, oohhh the shame, the shame ......

Joe, That is very interesting! This is one machine that in my opinion looks so much nicer naked.

I find most of the Kenmores not too pretty, minus the Lady K. If I owned this machine it would be displayed this way all the time. Thanks for posting the link to your video on naked Betty!
