My very, very old trusty sewing machine died and I am looking into replacements.
Was it an Elnita 120 by any chance?

My wife and I found one at the recycling bins and I brought it home.

There is no foot pedal and the one for her brand new Elna 1000 (CHF 287) has a different type of connector, so I don't know if it works.

Google found this May 1987 newspaper advert for a sale of Elnita 120s.

I think this is grasping at straws, but are there any sewing machine geeks out there who know where one might acquire a compatible foot pedal or convertor?
