No way, there are better buys out there. I'm jealous of your 400 mile sale, that is something that me and my daughter have always wanted to do.......someday!

This was our first time and we have been here for 7 years. It would have been a lot more fun if it hadn't been so cotton pickin hot.

Did all these machines have the power cord, peddle and any attachment?

A FW in good clean working condition is worth about 500.00. How much will the replacement cord cost?

How can you determine how it sews or even if it works at all without a power cord? I'd bargain down based on that... to a LOT less.

I have no idea where it starts and ends. We started in aurora, Ky. and almost made it to reidland, Ky. I know it ran along highway 68. Sorry I can't be more help.
I know there is one once a year that runs close by lexinton, Ky. but I don't know what the route is.

I know it ends in northern Ga but I have not gone up there to see it.

I would only pay that if it were in mint condition, complete with all attachments and a case in excellent condition. Maybe a white one because I know they sell for more. The free arms (222K) sell for $1200 and up.
