I find it interesting that the Singer 201-2 seem to be hard to find in some areas. I'm in California and haven't had to hard time finding them at all, but finding a 201 with the external motor in either body style has been darn near impossible. I think I might have seen one in the past and didn't realize what it was at the time. Now that I would love to find one, I haven't seen hide nor hair of one! I think I must have 5 of the 201-2's some with the silver plate on top and some without it.
