My guess would be that it is a Thomas instead of an Atwater-Kent.

This is an Atwater Kent type H (with no mechanical advance in the head ) . Good for dirt tracking if you know how to get your gas and spark set just right.

Hi Matt,
Tried calling again. Is there two distributer heads there & do the gears look good? My goal is to make a timer elivator. Does the hole head rotate?
How do I get you paid?
