Default Vigorelli Vigor BR

Wednesday I saw this on marketplace.y. Short road trip.. PIcture was a bit fuzzy and it looked like a Singer 15 clone. I asked for a closer pic. OOOOOH It is a Vigorelli.Vigor BR I have one Virgorelli and like it, but this is older. Went to go look at it and it followed me home. I knew it was missing a bobbin and bobbin case but maybe the newer one would work, It did. I cleaned and lubed it. GF threaded it this a.m. and it stitches. and we found out it uses Singer 15 bobbin bits so I can return the borrowed pieces to the other Vigorelli. Now do I need to try to find a Vigorelli bicycle to go with it? The new new machine may be converted to a hand crank. I have no real idea when it was built.

Never heard of this brand before, but I always enjoy your posts, Leon.
I really have hand-crank envy!

The motor mount looked good on the outside, But it didn't have a boss. So it prolly won't be a handcrank.. OH well, fun stuff to play with.
