Thank you for any suggestions as I have been searching and feel like I am at a loss.... I am not even sure how to identify the Model Number. Maybe this one will have to go "As Is" to someone else. :oops:

You can date the machine here under Serial Number/Dating List.

No--it is a very bad repaint. Billy didn't do it.

I also have a Free with wooden legs, and two smaller treadles--a Franklin and a National--with wooden legs.

Thanks Nancy for the information. I am not very knowledgeable about motors as the majority of the SM's I have are treadles. What are the difference between friction motor and other types?

Next project: Pfaff 230 with gosh awful green painted cabinet w/chair. This one may take a while as I have just got to get rid of that green paint. Then it will be for sale.
Mighty dirty and suspect motor problems
