I need to figure out the model number of this Good Housekeeper sewing machine so I can look for replacement parts. I had thought the 3347-TW was the model number, but google did not give me a hit on that?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Fact: Good Housekeeper has nothing to do with Good Housekeeping magazine.
General information from Google:
"Sewing machines manufactured in the 1960s usually have the model number on the machine's front panel above or below the stitch length controller. On machines manufactured before 1960 the model number is located on a small plate on the front of the machine."
However; there are some lesser known brands that do not follow this general information and hide their model numbers in other places.
Very little is known about this brand and some people do not look at the name and just assume it is 'Good Housekeeping' so it gets even more confusing.
I have provided some links that may be able to help you identify your machine and help you with finding parts. It does seem that parts may be difficult to find.
You will have to join each group to ask questions but you should post on several sites as each site may provide different information.
Post the same pictures you have here and ask for help but it will be best to state what problems you're having.

Thank you for the links to groups who can help with information about these sewing machines. I have my mothers. My father said he bought the machine from a traveling salesman.
If your machine was manufactured since about 1990, look for the model number on the hand wheel side of the machine near the on/off switch or the electric cord receptacle. If your machine is from 1970's to 1980's the model number is on the front panel of the machine.
I believe it is a 70's model. When you say 'front panel' exactly where is that please?
Thanks!
