I have no problem with the black clamp as I mostly only do a reg straight stitch but it would be nice to have a side clamp and not have to use 2 machines

This might help:

Is there something, somewhere on the machines that have the model type?

ok, here is my latest addition to my sewing machine stable. Found this on CL and bought it only for $20. It came with the cabinet, but no accessories. I think this machine started out as treadle, and became "electrifed" at some point in her life.

I don't know, call me crazy but I think the red rubber bands on the motor are not orginal. Just a gut feeling on my part :lol:

I just couldn't help myself. I had to e-mail them about this one and try to set them straight. Shame on me, I"m a bad boy. WAY overpriced.

WOW Jackie! Very nice looking machine and I love the cabinet. Great job! OK, OK, OK, I know I need to get off here and go to the store. I'm leaving now, stop pushing. Will check in when I get back.

I can't believe it! I just heard back from him and he assures me it is in PERFECT MINT condition and it is every bit worth what he's asking. I requested pictures. Will see, but for some reason I really doubt it.

Oh thank goodness. I was going to email them and tell they were way over priced, but I talked myself out of it.

I found this listing last night.

http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/atq/1904550744.html

The guy had it listed as a FW. Well I knew right away it wasn't. so I emailed him and sent the link to the Singer serial number. Well he was so nice and wrote back and thanked me. I see he has since updated his listing.
