Alyce,
You'd need the belt guard / bobbin winder with screws, hand wheel with stop motion knob and washer, light assembly (might could still use your original one) and the appropriate screw. Also the motor with mount and screw if you want to motorize it. (I stole your pic of the front of your machine to illustrate the screw holes. I didn't have one of my own.)
It's actually very easy to do. The best way would be to buy an inexpensive clone or other similar vintage Singer, and higrade the parts.
