The Vertical Feeds can be pretty accurately dated by the serial number on the front slide plate from warranties on file:

Thank you Jon! I went to the Needlebar site - my serial # is 683526 - under model it says Underfeed or Manufacturing - not sure what that means? When I lift up the machine there is a VF stamped on the underside so I am confused lol. Any help would be appreciated. Also - she was missing her shuttle and bobbin and I was fortunate to find one on ebay so once that arrives I can see how she works. Going to spend some time this week cleaning her - watched Muv's video so feel a little more confident.
