The 1937 Ford parts book shows only a four blade fan for 4cyl 28-34 so they must have
dropped the two blade in the early 30's.

Anyone wanting to restore an A or AA as per the Judging Standards needs to have the Judging Standards and Restoration Guidelines to use as research material.

The AA used the A fan. The correct two blade fan is described in Area 3 on page 3-5. The single thickness fan was used from late 1930 to production end.

The Judging Standards supplement E update is scheduled for 2014. I believe that the MARC JSC has reviewed the proposed changes and that the proposal will be sent to the MAFCA JSC.

Sorry, that is about all I know.
