Re: 88-A Platform Bed Questions
Hi, Quick rivet question. Could someone please check their original 88-A platform and make sure I have formed the correct rivet heads. This is the front right corner. I know based on an original that all the round head rivets in the AA-88074 "floor corner reinforcement" are correct, but I ...

Re: 88-A Platform Bed Questions
Hi Neil, I only made all new cross members 1-6. The floor side members (AA-88091), Angle supports (AA-88061), the reinforcements and stake pockets on cross member #6 are all original. It took me a while to get to this point, I would not be able to put a number on the hours. I don't know if I am read...

Re: 88-A Platform Bed Questions
Thank you Neil! Just to clarify the sill plates on a 1931 d3 88-A platform. It looks to me that: Sill plate AA-88064 (5-7/8" long with the U-bolt hook) was used under cross members 1, 2, 5 Sill plate AA-88066 (4" long rectangular flat plate) was used under cross members 3, 4, 6 Sill plate ...

88-A Platform Bed Question
Hi, I am working on my 88-A platform bed. I made all new cross members, but am using the original angle brackets to side sills (AA-88061) and original side members (AA-88091). On the each end of both of the original side members (AA-88091), there are 2 punched holes. I cannot figure out what they ar...

Re: 1931 Long Running Board Questions
Snyder's is out of them. They get them from Howells, but have been waiting for 2 years for a new order to be run.
I think I can make them, but I do not know what the top looks like, e.g. where all the holes are. That's why I am interested in a picture.
