Envy Envy - it is a beautiful model Jim, shame they never made it. Some other nice prepros in there but no comparison the Singer. I reckon the logo designer did a 100% job on that one.

Those you show are probably the Code 2 versions made by MICA Antonin as this model didn't have the header board. A genuine prepro should have either an incomplete base date ie 197- and /or incomplete Y number ie Y-
There may also be casting changes to the model, different from actual release but still have a full date and Y number cast in.
