Does anyone have any info on Vintage Arrow sewing machines? Checking out a Precision built, made in Japan, Mod TZ-20 16178 Would like to know year made, over all quality of this brand and anything else someone might share. Thank you

Those old Japanese machines are pretty good overall. Made of all metal, weighing in at 40 pounds, teasing. A lot of them are what is commonly referred to as "Singer model 15 clones", the tension being on the end, on the faceplate. They will sew forever.

Hi,
I recently picked up a green Tz-20 machine in the cabinet, and am also having a hard time located further information. It appears to have been made by Toyota, I'd guess in the late 50s/early 60s. I love the machine and would like to know more about it. Did you ever find out anything more about the one you were looking at?

I have a machine TZ 20 made in Japan. LA Salle Automatic. It takes cams, is medium to dark green in color. I didn't get a manual with mine. Does anyone else have this machine?
