This Singer 401a Sewing Machine has been cleaned inside and out, serviced, and fully lubricated, motor has been rebuilt. It’s in good condition and sews beautifully.
The machine is in very good condition. There is some spotting in the paint, and some paint chips that appear to have been painted over.. Includes coed, pedal, 1 cam, pack of 10 needles and 6 bobbins.
Serial number is NA646249, built in the late 1950s/early 1960s.
The 401s were some of the last all metal machines they built. With a little care, this machine will still be running in another 60 years.
Feel free to ask questions!
