I have my grandmother's old singer (similar water damage...apparently grandpap used it as a plant stand at one point) and also had to replace the treadle belt.

She is a beauty, no doubt about it, and I would venture to guess worth far more than $81. I have my (grand)mother's treadle Singer in a cabinet that looks remarkably similar to that, except that there is a matching box-like cover to go over the machine instead of it dropping under the desk.
