Default DRs day Good Will score :-)

Had a doctors appointment this morning. Was pretty decent, I'm improving. Dr is a Korean guy in his late 20s and sharp as a Schmetz needle. Bent and twisted me in all directions. About twisted my head off checking my neck. But he seems to be satisfied in my progress so I won't complain.

After the Dr visit my wife said "Lets go look at that sewing machine I saw at Good Will yesterday."
I said: "What are we waiting for?"

The machine turned out to be a Singer 66-16 in a small cabinet with a tiny center tilt out drawer.
The machine, 1 of 15,000 allotted 2-13-56 is almost mint. No needle rash. No rust. No scratches, no major ones anyway. No missing parts ... it even has it's slide plate AND a bobbin. Nothing broke, nothing bent. The white paint on the stitch length lever is unmarred as well.
The only thing that might bother some folks is it's got a newer green cord and controller. Ugh.
No manual or accessories either, but I can get those if I want to.

The cabinet isn't as good as the machine, but it's no where near as bad as some I've got / had.

And yes, here is some pics:

I haven't tested it yet, but I will in bit.

Oh yeah, we only paid $20.00 and tax for it. Not too shabby me thinks.
