100 year old singer sewing machine - $1200 (desoto)

I guess they named the machine Bear Tracker and there's nothing wrong with it. (except the ad)

Actually the blue bookish value on that there Bear Tracker is 825-1085. So, overpriced, as usual.

Did anyone realize that the original ebay item was still for sale? I am shocked that no one has purchased it! Especially since there is free shipping.

I'm tempted, but I really don't know what I need it for...
That said,... what motor?

I'll let you know when I get it home? 
I'd say knee lift, and the motor is at the back just out of the frame. I called her, and I'm leaving shortly to go get the truck and get it.
ETA: She took it to a shop here, they said $100 to tune it up, handwheel is seized, a lot of work blah blah blah...

Brought it home 
Knee Lift, the treadle hooks to a lever that engages the clutch on the motor. I'm going to post more about it in another thread.
She took the photos at just the right angle as to see no hint of the motor at all.
