Seen a Free machine today in a mission cabinet, decals are in great shape, attachments box is complete and full, manual and some thread. Is missing the shuttle and front slide cover and machine turns over a little hard, has a price of $55 on it. Guy did offer to give a better price. Didn't get to see if the top had any problems. Does it sound like a deal or not. Lee

Oh, yeah, after all the above comments, yesterday I scored a 15 clone locally for free. It's got green decals that are in decent shape, but overall it is absolutely filthy and needs new wires on the foot controller. So, it's not even in the house yet (way too dirty!), and it's gonna take hours to clean it enough to get it inside. So I'll show pictures in a few days. But the decals are cool...it looks very Irish!! LOL

We did the Jelly Roll Race at one of our guild meetings last year....I took my 301a, and there were a few Featherweights, and lots of high $$ newer machines in that room. Probably about 50-60 machines that day. Guess what....I won on my 301a, finishing in 55 minutes. They let us sew the strips end to end before they started timing. But it was GREAT!! My little Ida beating all those fancy plastic fantastic machines!! Yay Vintage!!!
