    Although I have not figured out which model this is yet, I feel really good about my find at a garage sale. All parts move, it has a broken belt, and is missig the bobbin case. $45, please don't tell me if I got 'took'. Thanks.
    Could someone tell me:
    1. What do I use to clean the wood cabinet.
    2. What do I use to clean the machine.

    She's a Beauty. Check out the Vintage sewing machine shop here on the board. They can tell you about everything from A - Z.:)

    Go to singer.com and put the serial number that at the bottom right of you machine and they will tell you where and when it was manufactured. Also you can download a free manual. The last time I was there they also told where you could get replacement parts. Gotta love Singer!!!

    This post tells how I refurbished the cabinet on my 15-91.

    Are you sure the bobbin case is missing and not just the bobbin? You have to unscrew the bobbin case on the 66.

    See the round metal lever next to the purple felt? If yours has that, it has the bobbin case.

    Sounds like to me you did great! A friend of mine always said " you like what you like, when you like it" so as long as you were happy with the price, that is what counts. I think you did great!

    I've been to the Singer site several times trying to find a place to put in the serial number, and I just cannot find it.

    Awsome, this helped me a lot, your cabinet looks beautiful. I'm delighted to learn that I do not need to stain it .... thank you so very much, now I'm excited about restoring the cabinet too.
