Singer 503
A friend gave me a 503 in pretty good shape but it is missing the top. Any ideals where I could buy one, have checked e-bay none as of today. It has 9 cams, only 3 feet but I do not need too many feet as I only quilt.I am going to clean and oil her this weekend runs and sounds great.

You might check the website bonanza.com I found some parts there a while back, it seems like there are a lot of sewing machine parts listed there.

If I can not find the hinged lid would it hurt sewing with out it?

no, they are actually removable and made to be used with the lid open/off. Kind of a silly design if you ask me.
|
thanks everyone I will sew without it and just make a cover for it I am not sewing

Save your money and sew with out the lid - the lid is some kind of decoration - serves no purpose other than to fall off at inconvenient times - like every time you open it in or out of a cabinet......

I like the lids. It has the purpose of keeping dirt, lint, and airborne junk out of the top. It won't fall off unless you abuse it. I've got a 401 and two 500s and the tops have NEVER come off.
Here is a possible source for a top: The Sewing Center 2504 S. MacArthur Blvd. Springfield, IL Phone: 217-525-7744 Steve Sutsser I asked him yesterday about the top and he said he might have one. You'll have to contact him to find out. Besides an incomplete machine just don't look right. Joe |
I have seen them on Ebay and listed one on Ebay before. If you are patient, it will come up.
