This is my $20 CL find. It was in a chewed up Sears cabinet and had been electrified. Wrong handwheel, crinkle finish motor, a newer friction style bobbin winder and a totally thread filled bobbin hook but no bobbin case. The bobbin winder stop pin had been cut off and so far that is the only alteration I cannot fix.

Yes, the finish is that shiny. I've never had a White that came to me in this condition! Thankfully the WFR that came in my beautiful cabinet was available as a donor. Now it has the correct handwheel, bobbin winder (floppy but works with hand holding), no motor, a bobbin case, and replaced rusty bits. With lots of Tri-Flow and cleaning, it is now installed and treadling in a beautiful cabinet. A match made in heaven! Sews quietly and consistently. I have a feeling it will soon be a favorite.
