Assembly Manual
 

I recently acquired a 30 Model A pick-up from a estate auction. It's a bit of a basket case, and the person who started on it passed away a few years ago. I have a lot of parts that I'm not sure how it all goes together. I'm trying to figure out how the cab mounts to the chassis. I have a variety of wood pieces, but I can't figure out how it all fits together. It seems that there are some pieces of wood between the body and the frame, along with some strips of what looks similar to and old military belt, I'm guessing to prevent squeaking. It's all a jigsaw puzzle I can't figure out. Are there any diagrams out there in the cyber world that would help me solve this puzzle? Thanks in advance.

Is there a local Model A Club in your area? Are you talking the top of pick up or all of it ?

Youtube is a wealth of information. If you can't find it on Youtube, it probably hasn't been done yet.
