Union Special 43200G - Chain Stitching in UK

[Beatle]

without motor …

[Chris]

Motors are cheapish- I seem to recall them going for about $150 in a parts supply catalog that's buried somewhere in my office.  I'm afraid of the shipping charges (and what my wife would do to me if I brought home a second antique sewing machine).

So, what is the ETA on this bad boy arriving in Gosprt?

Look at what I just bought, it came out of the Levi's factory in North Carolina a few years ago:

I'm just arranging air freight.  Not sure how long till it is here.  I guess about 4 weeks.  I then need to hook up a small compressor (to autofold the hem), then learn how to use it.  G
