New Toy

It's been awhile since I have visited this forum, I have been busy ebaying and just surviving. In my wheeling and dealings I did manage to pick this up and now I can try my hand at some seat covers and other projects like my bus and Sunbeams that need attention.

Is this a machine that Singer built for Ford, somehow I missed the blue oval, even though I looked twice.

Hey John
No this is just a humble Singer 144W102 that has been purring away for decades making parachutes and now will be pressed into service doing auto upholstry. I was hoping there were some other needle heads here doing there own custom interiors.

Cheers
Rick
