1895 Singer Model 27 with Sphinx Decals - Rusty Rescue

Nothing is as sad as seeing an OLD antique machine in this condition found at a hoarder's junk shop in Marshall, Missouri. In the freaking parking lot out in the weather.


Looks pretty rough doesn't it? Well... with a little bit of work for the last couple of days I have gotten her to this point: 

In the next few days I'll be working on getting the locked up mechanism to moving again so she can possibly stitch when I get the shuttle slides unrusted to the machine. Just wanted to show folks that you can take a super nasty looking machine and make them look a little better with Sewing Machine Oil, some metal polish, and a super fine grit sandpaper.
