Re: Spring Start-Up - What to look for?

Well the truck is running but the carburetor had to be changed. Float broke off likely got some moisture in it from sitting froze and broke. Regardless getting closer to seeing it running properly. Thanks for the input and charts. Appreciate it.

Re: Trafficators - Anyone installed these on their trucks

I have been looking at LED lights and have reached out to a couple of people already recommended on other threads within the forum. I suspect although it might be a conversation piece it might as already mentioned "create another distraction". I am really looking forward to spending time l...

New guy just bought my first AA Truck. Sorry but I am a bit like a sponge right now, in that I am reading all about these trucks, history, applications, model variances etc. The one thing I am a little concerned about is my truck which will arrive once the snow leaves up here in Canada is a 6V unit....
