Vintage Sears Kenmore Metal Sewing Machine 1040 Model 158.10401
This is a really cool Vintage sewing machine! It’s 3/4 Sized and measures about 12 inches wide and 5 inches deep. It’s surprisingly light weight for an all metal machine.
I don’t know sewing machine mechanics and I’m sure this beauty could use a good tune up. It seems to work, but it lags until you turn the hand wheel.
Mine still has its original Rose Embossed Clamshell Case, (Rare) Instruction Book, Case Tag, pedal, and assorted accessories/notions.
It has:
• All Metal Gears and Cam Stacks
• Front Loading Bobbin
• Feed Dog Control
• Reverse Stitch Control
• Double Needle Stitching
• Adjustable Stitch Length Dial
• Special Stitch Dial
• 1.0 Amp Motor

• Low Shank Foot
• Convenient Built-in Accessory Box
• Additional Sewing Space with Hinged Extension and Turned Out Accessory Box
