I was given this old sewing machine some years ago, it sat in storage for over 5 years threaded and ready to go! I forgot I had used it back in 2007.

I'm trying to find out what model it is, and who makes it.. There is NOTHING on it, except that word classic, and a 6 digit serial number on a sticker on the bottom.

I think it might be a kenmore made in the early 70's..

Thanks.
IF ANYONE is interested.. this is a kenmore 385 series. Specifically 385.1249
I found a free downloadable manual at a local Sewing shop store here..

The only difference between the one in the manual and mine, is I have a button to push for reverse, and not a lever.

Thanks to all who tried to help me with this!..
