Interesting - just before the end of the 82A body style and the transition to the 30-31 body.
Its like they got forced into it because of the greater demands/service of the Borg-Warner setup and perhaps discovered it "late" in the October '29 to May '30 transitional period.
Probably the same manufacturer was tagged for both AA-8005-AR and AA-8005-B
I was going to "retro" a late 30 rolling chassis and use the 82A body and nose. I even had the 30-31 topped "transitional" gas tank that fits the 28-29 body. It was during this research I came upon the fact that I could use a "regular" Model A radiator - in part to avoid "gapping" issues and in part because it worked - or maybe it didn't so well?
Project cancelled (job change) and chassis sold to a buyer who came from Texas to get it. (26K original miles on that chassis!)
