I think I'll name it after my grandma too, in honor of her. 1963 was the year I was born...so that's extra special for me.
Beautiful machine.

Cool! I would love to have had one of my GM's machines!
I saw one like this one at a yard sale yesterday. It was in a nice cabinet, had 2 boxes of attachments and looked to be in great condition. She wanted $100. for it. I have no idea if that is a good price or not, but I didn't buy it. If anyone is interested...I can tell you where it is...(if you are around Middleton, TN)

Where do I find the serial number on this machine?
