Thank you. Me too, since I got hooked on vintage sewing machines I've been on a lookout and this is the treadle that I've been wanting. I got a chance to buy a white treadle for $20 but for some reason I like singer more.

Thanks again all of you. I checked the cabinet again this morning and it's in good condition except of course that there are some missing cabinet parts. I will keep you all posted after she had her extensive spa treatment.

sunflowerzz, lovelyl, maureent and GreyQ: thanks a lot. now that i got Carol, my on hold projects will be on hold for the moment as she needs more attention and more TLC and an extensive spa treatment.

hey GreyQ - i hope so. i need all the luck at the moment . but here's wishing you luck also on hunting your coveted Greyhound. i am at the lookout too and if i see something in my area i will surely ping you.

If you run into problems in nursing her to health or any questions - Bonnie Hunter (Quiltville) not only has a couple treadles but loves to offer help in getting these babies sewing right - I am sure she would be tickled to death to offer opinions, advice and encouragement. :-)

Beautiful machine and cabinet, so happy you're her new caretaker. I thought I only liked Singer machines, until I was given a 1917 White Rotary. I've been using it since late November, its a fabulous machine. I bought a treadle cabinet for "Susie", removed the motor, she's much happier as a treadle. I don't have to keep picking up 40 pounds of machine to use on the table.
