    Can any of ya'll tell me a good and honest supplier of vintage parts. I have found a sweet little hand crank machine but she needs some help.She is missing her front throat plate and some of the clips that hold her to her base. Any info will be greatly appreciated. I rescued her from a second hand store the other day for $25. My 6 yr. old GS wants to learn to sew on her. She is a cutie. TIA. I have got to get my camera out and take some pics.

    I thought you meant body parts.....

    I will take two hips, two knees and a smaller waistline.

    I thought the same thing LOL

    This young at heart, getting old in body, Lady will take a new neck, elbows, and oh heck...how about the entire body of a 25 year old???

    :mrgreen:

    You might want to post this question over on the Vintage Sewing Machines board. There are several people there who are very experienced with restoring the vintage Ladies.
