Need info on old Singer sewing machine
Hello, I found this old SINGER sewing machine in a storage unit and need some info on it. It's a model "29sv4", I tried searching for that model number but have literally found 0 results. It looks almost identical to the model 29-4's. It also looks like someone converted it to electric with a small motor on the back side.
Does anyone know any info on this and what this may be worth?
Thank you!

It is a 29-4 for all intents and purposes... the SV as I understand it is an indication of a special order varient. (Could be the motor addition in fact.
The manual for the 29-4 will be fine for this one.
I have purchased one for about $150 but they seem to sell for more like 3-500 (LOTS of folks ask 800+, but most just sit at that price)
Cleaning it, oiling it, and making sure it sews, is the only way to get those prices, BTW
