WONDERFUL surprise!
while I was out of town, my DH bought me a Willcox & Gibbs in the original cabinet! it has a W & G motor and a 1925 serial number, making it a very late machine.
It runs very well, but needs extensive cleaning and rewiring. It also has a stitch length regulator!
he bought it knowing I want a treadle W&G, thinking I could convert it. However, as it is in the original cabinet with original motor I am hesitant to convert it... what do ya'll think?

How far are you (location/miles) from middle TN. I have a Singer treadle, not the shiny black one, don't know the model, that you can have it if you want to make a road trip to come get it. I don't know how to do pics, but maybe I can get DD to do it for me one day next week. I am making a determined effort to get rid of some of the many double machines that I own. I don't use them, and have started saying (one in, two out) everytime I see something that my heart longs to go an look at.....That way you can leave your W&G electric, and have both at the same time.
