I have yet to see my first Lotus Singer Model 66 in the flesh (in any condition, for sale or not) after 8 years of searching. Good snag!

CD in Oklahoma

I was lucky to get a Lotus treadle (1908) in perfect condition. My wife picked it up junking in Germany. Miriam has seen it and it is nice.

I have been on the hunt for many years myself. The first Lotus I saw was priced way out of range for its condition, and I still kick myself for walking away from a 99 hand crank that was at a yard sale here, but just caught me at a bad time to invest what they wanted for it. So when this one popped up, with both criteria met, I had to bite. It is getting prettier.
