480volt Posted February 12, 2016 Report Posted February 12, 2016 I'm sure this topic is just beating a horse long dead, but do any dealers out there specialize in new old-stock Singer industrial parts? Other than a few dusty, back-of-the-shelf finds, I'm sure most of the 111w class parts were exhausted decades ago, but what happened to the military surplus stocks? Quote
Members Constabulary Posted February 12, 2016 Members Report Posted February 12, 2016 A while ago there was a post from someone who had military 153W or 111w parts but I´m not sure what he or she did with them. I would guess the military sold their old stocks at auctions and someone who had no clue what to do with singer parts tossed them away. Wouldn´t be the first time. But I´m sure some stock have survived somewhere in the US but the challenge would be finding them.

CowboyBob Posted February 12, 2016 Report Posted February 12, 2016 I'm thinking the same the military would throw it away & since we are talking over 50 yrs since they've been made I really doubt you'll find anything.
