I guess I wasn't too specific in the original post. The modifications I saw were to upgrade it to a more newer machine, including the electronic portions. i.e. cruise, one stitch ability, new handles that look like the Tin Lizzie ESP's. I think they may have also painted them to a different color too. Just can't remember who they were. QueenQuilter is a Tin Lizzie, just without the bells & whistles.
