Is this right?
I've been looking for a vintage machine that I can use for FMQing and I came upon this one. It is described as a Singer 319W, but the other ones I looked up didn't look at all like this and there is no mention of the green and black color. If it is a 319W can it be used for FMQing? I am a novice with vintage machines and the description left a lot to be desired!

find the serial number on the machine (possibly on the bottom) then visit the singer site- you can enter the serial number and find out exactly what it is, the year it was made and download a manual for it.

This is posted for sale and the serial number isn't visible. I would hate to buy it and find out it wasn't what I thought and won't work for what I hope to use it for. This was the only picture posted.

ask the seller for the serial number then ck out the singer site for make and model.

It doesn't appear to have a foot pedal or power cord, so I may be buying a "decorative" machine for my sewing room, but I am going after it....fell in love with the unique coloring! I have to stop browsing!

I have a 319w Singer in my collection in both all black and in all green. In fact, the black one was my first vintage machine and the reason I fell in love with vintage Singers....be aware if you do sew with it, it takes a 206 needle that you can order on line....It is a wonderful machine!

Can you drop the feed dogs on the 319w? Not that it matters now, because I want it either way, but maybe I could just cover them if they can't be dropped. I am sure I will be looking at online sources for pieces and parts since it comes "naked". Thanks for the tip about the needles.
