I think 99, too. It has a drop in bobbin and is not a 201 and looks too small to be a 66. I love the case with "Singer" inlaid in the handle. I dig that cabinet too. Too bad the stool is missing.

Yeah, right. And I love it when they say "see the picture" and there is no picture.

Yes they do have a pin in the shuttle to carry the bobbin with a hole thru it. I have a Peerless White HC and it took me awhile to find the bobbins for it. Ebay has them or did.

There's one a hour from me- same price. Very nice style irons.

"machine runs great but the needle mechanism won't go up & down" :confused:

I picked up a Kenmore 1803, with all of the attachments, manuals and a cabinet, for $10, that suffered from the same condition. Turns out the bobbin winder clutch had been loosened.
