Absolutely not true. There is also a myth that the A frame was designed to fit the T body (in case Ford wasn't able to complete the job) but this too is a myth. The 1928 Ford was a brand-new car (pretty much from the ground up).

Beds are quite different; early 26 T beds have the front stake pocket at the front corner, mid-1926-27 beds have them set back about 10". Model A beds have a different flange on the bottom of the bedside, lack a provision for the battery box in the front header, and do not have a reveal for the wheel well (Model A's use a flange for fender mounting). Tailgate hinges are also slightly different.
