Too bad the 66 got painted. It originally had the Lotus decals. I've seen a couple of early machines that have been painted all black and one hadn't been taken apart to paint.
So many machines like the VS2 and 66s are missing the slide plates. Did the 99 have its slide plate withe the other bits that came with it?
I have been keeping my eyes open for a Western Electric machine. I have a foot shape controller that would need to be rewired if I found a machine for it.
I initially thought flat hand wheel would take a flat belt but then I noticed that it would take a normal treadle belt. The Weed hand wheel is flat, but not as large as the one you have.
