Nice box of attachments that are a bit rusty. Now to read the manual. :D :D :D

Thanks Billy

Hey Lisa I guess I did really good huh?!? That is a really nice machine but you know I am in love with the cabinet!! I think you did wonderful and I know it has a loving home, but I do have one question.......Can I play with it when I am there? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Of course you can if you can find the time. We are supposed to be out there shopping for some new great finds! There are some worm holes in the top, but I think that adds character. Well, that's the story I am going to tell.

The Hot Rod Singer is a beauty. I have the red eye, I think!

We did really good on that deal!!! Now we need to find a Drawing Room Cabinet for the Lotus 66 and you are golden!! I really like that it is a Non Singer and the cabinet style!!

Yes we are going to have a BLAST when I am there!!

Oh, Billy, you may have to wrestle Missy for it. She has made it her new throne. Of course she does that with each new machine. I thought in the front foyer they wouldn't be interested.

I haven’t had a chance to take her for a spin yet but I am really excited.

I need to find a downloadable manual as the manual that came with it is flaking so bad I hate to use it much.

If anyone has a source for a manual please let me know.

Judy

I have one of these; I've taken the motor off (left the light) and use it in a treadle. If you find a manual for it or decide to photocopy yours, let me know where, as I've been searching for several years.

The cabinet is beautiful!
