Wooden wheels for AA Trucks
Wooden wheels for AA Trucks
October 21, 2005. So, today I was looking at a truck frame with Model AA fenders on it and parts of a cab. The unit had dual wheels with wood spokes so I assumed it was some sort of previous transplant job. However, the closer I looked the more I believe this is the original configuration. The front hubcaps are stamped Ford and the drive train with the axilliary transmission looks stock and original. The rearend is suspended with half elliptical springs coming from a very heavy spring pack/bracket combo. Does anyone else out there have any experience with this configuration? Tony in Canada
Rear wood wheels
Tony. Were the front wheels spoked or disc and where was the emergency brake located? Left side rail, front of trans. or on right of tower? Early 28's had a lot of parts left over from 27. I have a early 28 with emergency brake on left rail ,equalizer system. No separate emergency break. The rear is marked with TT. Just a guess, maybe its a gathering of different parts.
