My AA Has Arrived and...LOL
My AA Has Arrived and...LOL
As a long time "A" owner and a first time excited "AA" owner, My AA Has Arrived! It is everything as promised and then some. Now the funny part, it won't fit (height) by 1 1/2 inch into my temporary garage, so I spent an hour removing and reinstalling a panel on the garage door to fit her in! Always something! She will be in her new winter home in a week or so...anyone want to come help me with the door again

Let some air out of the tires! Easy way to drop a couple of inches.spdway1 wrote:As a long time "A" owner and a first time excited "AA" owner, My AA Has Arrived!

That's one I wouldn't touch. Appears to be a very solid body. That should be left as a survivor. Nice pile of wood you got there as well. You appear to be well stocked for the winter.

Thanks Guys. I have no intentions of touching it.
I bought it from a member on this forum.. The truck is from Minnesota.
The odometer shows 62,300 miles. I believe that most of those miles were put on hauling wheat the the western border of Minnesota to the flower mills in Minneapolis.

If you get some graffitti remover you should be able to remove the spray can paint over the signage on the door.
