Looking for a particular machine.

Hi all, so I inherited a sewing machine from my grandmother as a child, it was a beautifully maintained machine and I used it as an adult.

Unfortunately my mother put it on the side walk. It was gone in minutes.

I’m trying to find the particular model as I want to replace it one day, I loved that machine so much. So here’s what I remember.

It was aged between 1940s- 1970s, it was green with a metal body. It was a singer. The threading instructions where on the inside flap, I’m pretty sure it had reverse. I think it could be similar to a 185k model? But none of them mention the flap on the head.

I have a 201p now, and it seems to be a later model.

I’m just curious if anyone here has come into contact with anything that sounds like this.

Thanks.

Ps. Very excited to hear about all your projects.
