Thanks Sharon and Steve. I knew it was a bargain too and jumped at it: It's missing a caster, the kidney plate at the back and a locking tab (made of brass, locks it at the back) but otherwise in great condition and for only $150. After the briefest of cleans and some tri-flow she's as smooth as a new one. I think my zigzaggers and buttonholers will work too! Makes this machine not just a pretty face but a usable pretty face
Took the kidney plate from my other VS2 (which is just plain black, since I just finished painting it). Now have to match up the decals by painting them on! Oh what fun.
