Y’all are correct it doesn’t have a motor boss. It has an electric motor conversion kit on it from many years ago. The back plate is replaced with a plate that has provisions for the motor and a light. The wiring has deteriorated but I can add new wires. I’m looking for a variable speed foot pedal with a plug to accompany the light. It’s already had a conversion and I’m not looking to improve its monetary value. It’s most valuable to me if I can use it for more than a sewing table for my modern machine.
And yes I think I will really like this machine.
