Default Found a new to me vintage Singer!

To be clear I won't be picking it up until Sunday, But I am so excited!!! If the pictures are to be believed from the CL ad and the e-mails I've exchanged with the seller I believe it to be a Singer Slantomatic -- looks like the 403a. Won't know for certain until I have it home and get to go over it and make sure it's truly clean and running... but oh am I ever excited!!! lol I have been haunting thrift stores and CL trying to find a vintage machine that was affordably(for me) priced, but could do what I want. They're only asking $25 for the machine, original accessories, cabinet, etc.

I emailed tonight to see if it was in fact still available and working condition, and was told this was the sellers' moms machine. Basically mom just doesn't sew as much with it as her "new" machine, and thought it took up too much space. Soo, fingers crossed that it will still work, and if it's sticking at all that I can clean her up and get her going again!
