I wonder what kind of needle fits in it.16x2 is almost impossible to get.

I want there V 69 and V 92 on use. what needle system do you use?

Nice! Please post some more pictures of this machine so we have a reference for other members.

Seems to be a Singer 16 needle so I would look for needle system 1738 which is also called 16x23 or 16x257 or DBx1 or 287 WH sometimes.

Or depending on the needle holder and / or the size of the hole in the needle bar you probably can use a more common needle like 134R or 135x17 but you have to adjust the needle bar height. The 2 mentioned have a ~2mm shank diameter whereas the original system has smaller diameter.

If it was my machine I would order a pack of lets say size 120 needle in 134R and just test if they fit. Adjusting the needle bar height is an easy task.
