Re: 1930 Model AA Engine and Transmission Worth

Peter, twice you have said, "All four cylinders are ceased" and others have continued to ask "if it runs".

The word you are looking for is not ceased but rather seized meaning the engine is frozen or stuck.

Re: AA Truck Photos

And a few more (can't attach more than three photos at a time on the forum). The first one is a new Gulf Oil Tanker taken in front of the Gulf distributor's office. I would guess the truck is Gulf Orange in color. You can see the Gulf gas globes on the clockface gas pumps on the sidewalk behind it....

AA Truck Photos

I came across several photos of AA's taken "back in the day" and thought I'd share them with my "Big Iron Buddies".

AA body style - Neil Wilson

Neil: I came across this photo of a '29 Model AA. It looks to be a special service body with a canopy top which in this case was used by a plumbing company. Notice it has a "pull out drawer" on the side of the bed just behind the passenger door. Also, wonder what is under the bed behind t...

Re: Is this cab really a 28?

It looks to me like a Frankenstein - the back part of the cab appears to be the rear part of a '28-'29 Tudor Sedan - note in the photos at the bottom of the rear it has the holes for a spare tire mount like a sedan. It'd be hard to mount a spare there between the cab and the pickup bed. :lol: Fred

I have a handfull of tickets for this raffle that I will sell for half price. ;-) Chris: I too have some (now useless) stubs but am glad one of the out-of-state guys who bought a ticket won rather than one of our local club members. I personally bought some tickets which were in the drum with my na...
