Wow - that is great. An original carrier for a 1929 AA express is about impossible to find. Let us know how the tire fits once the express body and running board are installed.

Fit looks really good as distance from running board is same thickness as tires on truck.

Does someone have measurements of the straight horizontal run of an original up to where it starts to curve up as measured from the out side of the frame? The one I made did not go thru the hole in splash apron like it should. It was a little high as it was curving upward. I think I need to add in a short piece there.
