Evo160k. Thank you for taking the time to respond and post the pics. You did a beautiful job restoring your machine. Your video is perfect. Everyone takes pics of the front of machines but rarely the back. Mine was used as a display in a boutique in Vegas. I have to take a die grinder to some tack welds used to immobilize the machine and cross my fingers. At that point I can try to replace bolts on the back and see what moves when I turn it. If it doesn't fly apart, I'll try to disassemble and get the bead blaster to remove all the rattle can residue and determine parts needed.

Looking for close up photos of a vintage claes patcher to see what a complete machine looks like. I recently acquired a machine I thought was a 29k but turns out its actually a claes. I emailed the company that obtained claes and waiting for a reply. I know its missing parts but it was local and some days I'm an optimist or idiot. I'm in Las Vegas, NV area
