Hey, I went back and looked, you are right as I knew you would be, it is a model 66-16, does that sound right, lol.....I knew it used the same bobbins and plate as my other ones. It just looked different, I guess it is a new one. My others are older than this one. This one sews great. I am anxious to get Her going good. One thing left to do is clean up the tension on Her, thanks Charlee. I knew you would set me straight, LOL.....have a wonderful evening, Joy

:) You're welcome Joy...you're right, I went and looked up the serial because I'm not always totally confident with visual identifications! :) I was pretty sure it was the 66 tho, because the face plate isn't flat like it is on the 99... :)
