Oh my, my...
maybe I found your Bel Air? Maybe not....it is NOT red & white. Is it a sacrilege to paint them?

That IS a BelAire but it is NOT the BelAire Charlee is looking for... Here is a pic of my boss's machine. I cleaned it for him.

Can anyone tell me anything about this hand crank? machine? http://spokane.craigslist.org/hsh/3496231892.html
I think it says Corona on it. I found it listed on CL, & the only other one I have ever seen/ can find info about online is this one in S Africa: http://pretoria.olx.co.za/corona-han...-iid-329140636
I would have no idea where to find parts. (should I be posting this question somewhere else?)


Wow! That Bel Air is REALLY NICE!!!!

The Corona appears to be missing it's motor. I believe they were made by National under a variety of different names. Reversew is a commonly used name for this model that there should be more information on in the internet.
There is a Yahoo National group that would have more info on parts availability and use.
