Default Lada model 123, made in Czech

My son lived in Germany and The Czech Republic for many years. He told me about the old treadle sewing machine that was up in the attic of the house he purchased there. He is back in Czech visiting and is bringing back the Lada for me. Depending on the cost it may only be the sewing machine head but I don't care. He has sent me a lot of pictures. Posted here a few pics. The bobbin case and the race appears to be cloned from the Singer 15. Other than a quite a bit of rust and dirt I think it should clean up OK.
