dakes2 Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 I just bought this machine very cheap for a restoration project and need to identify what model it is, the plate on the back is not very readable but where it says model, it looks like it says FRICEL and serial number 407085, to me it looks very similar to the KD 50, any help appreciated.
