Oh, all of those photos are of fantastic looking machines. You guy's know how to find them.

Rodney,

All those machines have a similar undersides. But there are definite differences between the straight stitch machines and the ZZ machines. The bobbin cases and hook assemblies are often the same, but the bobbin drives are generally a bit different.

That is a really nice machine. I would have brought it home too.

MacyBaby,

Elaine wants a better pic of the cams. We have some that are unidentified.

I never see old machines in mine but a friend goes more often and she's seen a few - nothing like what y'all keep finding (guess that's a good thing LOL!) I'd be even MORE overrun with machines but I NEED some cool looking ones!

I keep buying them and then I can't figure out how to fix them :(. That's a good looking machine you've got!

At my house the dining room set, living room chair and one bed had to go.

If I try that I'll end up outside sleeping under it. Winter will be here soon.

I found this about the machine: http://www.doubleveil.net/zssmp/ambeauty.htm . I flipped mine over, sure enough, in big bold letters cast in the bottom: "TOYOTA'. Looks like several companies were importing this machine under different labels.
Now I just need to find some cams...
