Update: the machine didn't sell and it's up for sale again on Ebay. I just put another bid on it, but the reserve price is not met yet.

the easiest would be to find another Supernova SM to use as a donor.
Have you considered joining the Necchi Yahoo group as Chris_Quilts and Irishrose had posted earlier to see if they had any suggestions?
Without knowing what the symptoms are with your motor, start with the simplest solution first: have you oiled your SM and lubricated the motor ?
Maybe others will have better suggestions for you but please keep us posted on how things work out.

If you can try the machine before you buy it, do so. If the drive puck is worn out (very short stitches at max setting) and the moving parts are rusty, pass on it. If the seller wants more than $100 - $200, pass on it." This is what I found on it.

Anyone near Wichita KS need a nice Singer in a pretty bentwood case? Price is good for the condition.

Just thought I'd share a couple of photos of a partial set of White Attachments that I found this week. The last Patent Date on the Ruffler indicates Aug 23, 87. The copper colored metal box is a little rusty and the velvet lining has faded but the attachments look to be in good shape. I believe these originally went with the White VS IIb.
According to the info that I've read, White only made the basic attachments - Many White's would have attachments made by Goodrich, Greist, and Johnson.

Was it a "buy it now"? Those are hard to come by and ultra high priced, at least for my pocketbook.
