New to me Necchi BU
Picked this up at GW for $15.00. The paint is in horrible shape but everything moves freely so not too bad a deal I think. It has the wonder wheel but did not come with the disks for it. My goal is to strip it completely and do a repaint. Already found and ordered the missing parts, so this weekend I begin the tear down.

Interesting - I have one of those - and never noticed the Necchi BU on the plate on the back.
As far as I'm concerned, the Wonder Wheel is an interesting novelty, but way more bother than it's worth, so I had DH" take it off.

I notice that there is a zig zag foot on it and am wondering if it has a left homing needle like the Necchi Alco that I have. Wonder what the deal is with the straight stitch feet for these machines. I have two with the left homing needles and both came with the zig zag feet. Neither machine has a needle position option either, so I can’t adapt that way.
