rare 61 original
 
Hey Guys,

I just picked up a 1961 original and it has a serial number of 624 and I have some pics on the camera. I just need to get them on here because I am missing some parts and I hope there are some guys on here that can help me get her back to the way she was.

Thanks,

Brian

Well, I gave $300 for it but I say its worth it no matter what she looks like.

Thanks,

hey guys thanks for all your input well when i can locate the right parts i will tear her down and get her restored and i will get more pics thanks for all the support brian

A three digit O is certainly a restore project. It can be exciting to get these old machines back in running order. Certainly worth keeping it around rather than parting out.
