John, first I misspelled it, it's Kinkade.  Made by
American Farm Machinery Co. Minneapolis, MN.  I think
mine is a model K made from '28 to '35.  No handles,
therefore no serial number (plate was on the handles).
Second, it is a single steel wheeled garden tractor
with the engine/gearbox inside the wheel.  They used
their own engine and the gearbox was integral with the
crankcase casting.  I liked it because it is an
unusual tractor, to say the least.  Probably NO parts
to be found on the face of the earth.  This will be
another challenge, as if I don't have enough of these
in the barn!
Here's one link to info:
