Looks like an open gear Aermotor. Old. Others on here can point out the Aermotor model.

Possibly an Aermotor RA model? Nice find!

Thank you in advance for all information and help as I begin my next adventure to restore her to her former beauty. It sat on a old homestead above their well, it kept their cattle watered. It remained in family for well over 100 years until land was sold recently and brought down.

I gather that it is from the early 1900s. What state are you in?

The experts on here can help you better, but I believe you can get with some on here that might have parts or can point you where you can find a remanufactured wheel and vane for it.

Southern Illinois/Odin. We have figured out that possibly it had 8ft. Wheel on it at one time by some numbers on the side A20 _? last number possibly a 9. The derick is 30ft.

The tower is Aermotor. Dan Benjamin of Freeman, SD could make you a wheel and vane.

What you have in the vice is a tailbone or what holds the tail vane. That is what I’ve always called em.

I appreciate the information, I'm very interested in getting a wheel and a vane. I am a welder I can do a lot of the repairs but need the parts also an the how to's. ~Dew
