Floor mats?

Post by Farrell In Vancouver »

I have not seen floor mats sold for the AA TRuck but I could be wrong about availability. A recent discussion on the Barn caught my eye. The originator was asking for a blank, no hole mat, so he could cut his own to fit a later transmission adaptation. One of the last Posts was from Mr. Bratton:
"We are in the process of having a run of our own floor mats made. I just got off the phone with the factory and they are willing to make some 30-31 floor mats for me with out the holes for the gear shift lever or the emergency brake cut out. Right now I told the factory to only make 5 but if there is a bigger demmand I can have more of them run. Just give us a call and talk to Jeff. If we get a bunch of requests in the next couple of days we might be able to add more to the run."

Could this be a opportunity to add to the order for those of us who need AA Mats?

Farrell:

I'd be interested in such a mat for a '30-'31.

For many years I used a rubber mat with backing that I ordered from J.C. Whitney. I don't know they still have them or not.

Seems there is a bit of interest.
Any of you guys close to Brattons and feel like giving Jeff a call?
"Just give us a call and talk to Jeff"
I know I would need one.

Just get on Bratton's web site and click on "contact us" and let them (Jeff) know. They answered my email in a couple hours. They still think they are ordering a small quantity of mats. More people should let them know so that they order enough.

from Jeff at Brattons

"Sir you are correct about the floor mats. We are having some of the 30-31
style mats made without any holes cut for the transmission or the emergency
brake lever. I have about 12 of them coming on this order. Once those 12
run out I can put another order in with the factory for more of them and I
can have more in about 3-4 weeks. As of right now I think we have sold 4 of
the 12 that are due in about 3 weeks, so there are still quite a few left to
be sold."

So what range of years are the floor mats interchangeable? Will these 30-31's fit in a 28/29?

The floor mat I have in my 29 is the same as the model A, you will have to cut the holes for the high- low pedal, The only thing I noticed was the mat retainer holes come up short, maybe the commercial cabs have other dimensions
This pic is from Bert's in Denver, and is like the one I have, Snyder's and Brattons are not the same, maybe a generic pic?.
