Silvertone model and motor identification

We have recently purchased a very nice Walnut Silvertone. Can anyone help us identify the model? It has the Silvertone Medallion in the lid.
The next thing we need identified, is the type of motor it has. This is a 3-spring motor with no manufacturing identifier except 'patents pending' stamped into the bottom plate. We need to get a couple of parts and would like to know as much as possible about this motor.
Hope to hear from all the Silvertone experts out there!

That is a SAAL motor, they all have that diagonal part. I've never seen one with three springs: [youtube]

That's very close in style to the XVI --

(There may have been some variations in the cabinet's details over its production run, so I wouldn't rule this model out.)

The motor is a SAAL Type CC 3 spring motor. I have a Silvertone Imper1al with this motor in it that I am trying to locate springs for.
