That is a Rek o Kut transcription turntable and a nice one at that! The tone arm is a Grey Research. Well worth restoring.
The motor is a single phase .5 amp(I'm guessing the decimal got wiped out, 50 amp is certainly too high.) 115VAC so there is no need for Twystd's three phase drive. If the motor start cap is electrolytic (the 2 mfd on the label) I'd replace it with a 2mfd oil cap.
Have fun, it looks like a nice project!
