I wanted to share with you what they had that I had no idea about. :) Pleasant surprise! I have 2 of them in my van right now that I am taking home to try and work on. Very excited!
They still have my stepdad's great grandmother's machine that is to where they can't get to it right now. I CAN'T WAIT to get to look at that one!!!!
??? Anyone know how or where I can get directions on how to thread these machines correctly?
Forgot to mention the light on these machines still work too! ;)

#15 1951 My Mom's favorite! The lady that owned the house next door had this one. She was a sweet lady. Not sure if Mom bought it after she died or if Ms. Cleota gave it to her.

#128 1940 (only 5000 made) Taking home w/me. No foot pedel has an arm thing that goes in that hole on the lower right. He started this one up for me. Oh, sounds awesome! The finish isn't slick, it's kind of a matte finish-LOVE IT!

My Dad said he finds these all the time for $10-$20! :shock: I said be on the lookout for a featherweight for me! He said he sold 2 machines a little while back. I sure wish I had known!! :cry: Now he knows who to call!! :lol:

They aren't shined up yet, but I told them that didn't matter to me! It was like Christmas getting to see these things! :) Now they know what to look for when they go out running around that would tickle me! :)
