Hi Miriam
The 320k was a really short series I have read somewhere. only about 2000 made in total! she is my go to machine, just love her! I have a 66 too ( I thought it was a 99 as I can lift it quite easily and I read that 66-es are really not portable, just dragable) I was raised on a farm though so I suppose those bale made me stronger then most ... she is really pretty but you all have seen so many of those. I have a husqvarna viking from the 2000 series but I count her as semi modern lol '78 or so |

Lovely machines. Liked the treadle one and the oil can with it. I also have some oil cans amongst my hobby things.
the can is so sweet! it had leaked and kept everything in the box oiled and rust free :) |

I found http://www.sandman-collectibles.com/...r-machines.htm fun to play with. Envious over your 320k. There's one for sale in Aus now, but it's pick-up only in Queensland :( |

I have some attachments that are so seized with rust, I'm not sure they're resurrectable (new word).

Ha! sounds like a challenge to me! Go for it, clean them up, make their lazy butts work!

There are two easy ways to tell: measure the length of the bed (66 is 8 1/8" from memory, 99 is less than 8"), or look up the serial number(http://www.ismacs.net).

There's one for sale in Aus now, but it's pick-up only in Queensland :( I lucked out completely with the 320, in a thrift store for 12 dollars (( 100 swedish crowns), complete and running but the foot pedal burnt out after a while. all she needed was a clean and some oil. She was what got me hooked on vintage machines |
