I was in the coffee shop and got some razzing to the effect "Why don't you put a big V8 in one of those old Fords of yours; something you don't have to crank." My response: "Real men crank". Got some cheers from the crowd. Best, Ed

If one bought an early 1928 AA flatbed the company recalled them(more than once) and replaced the 15/16 lug nuts with 1-1/8. Since the 15/16 jam nut couldn't be run off one needed TWO starting handle/lug wrenches!

I think the model 315 standdrive milktruck had the brake handle to the left of the shift lever.

Blue Rock Green. This was the standard color for dealer inventory in 1930-31. Some AA trucks were purchased as a cab and chassis only with owner or aftermarked body added; perhaps yours. Blue Rock Green is a nice color and correct for a truck. I live in Cumberland RI if you want a hand with those wh...

The "Ford Truck" flat bed is for a Model TT. The AA version would have rivets below the center stake pocket for the spare wheel bracket.

Looks like a Sparton for a late 1932 Ford car & truck. Also used on the 1933-1934 truck. It is illustrated in a 1932 Ford Service Bulletin and shows how to mount it on a 1928-1931 car or truck as a replacement for the motor driven one. I have one on my 1928 truck because it came in a swap for so...

Do you mean the piece of tin at the bottom of the spring? I can sell you one for $5 plus postage. E-mail me at pilsyahs@gmail.com if interested or 401-333-1327 eastern standard time.

You need a 1930-31 headlight bar and lamps. As for the rear end I'd drive the truck around and see if you like it before getting a replacement chassis. Maybe the rear end you have is a high speed one. I would enjoy the truck as is for a while; get the bugs out of it. Best, Ed

You must have missed my July 27 post. Best, Ed

Ford script cab for sale on www.modelthaven.com, qv. Check it out.

The set (for the car) can be ordered from various dealers. I use TAMS and recommend them. It's his part #A3000-M or you can order piecemeal from him. The original grease fitting driver tool is a must. It's a $3.75 item. There's no way these can be driven in place without this. You also need a grease...

The AA spring has 5 lubrication points. On the example shown someone tightened the castle nut so tight the pivot would never move. When I removed the spring to clean up the leaves the main leaf (ie the bottom one) broke in two places at the U bolts. The up side is there was no need to rebush. These ...

Consider a Lincoln. Lincoln cars had some parts that look like Model A, but are much larger.
