... Well, new old stock (never used, made in Brazil in 1984). A batch of Facit 1740s are on offer, probably for $100 apiece + shipping. Contact Dave Streko at dmstreko@verizon.net. Thanks to Dan Johnson for providing this information and showing us his machine here. It has some very unusual features.

Heh, I wonder how many of these will end up in the Database... :D
All of them, I hope! They are large, not exactly elegant looking, but very nice machines.
I' love to have one, but my travels are eating my typewriter budget.
It appears that this machine is built on virtually the same template as my India-built Linea. I'd be interested in seeing just how close they really are under the hood.

It would be interesting to undertake that comparison. They look nearly identical from the location and spacing of the keyboard and controls.
