Bought this 28 today will bring it home next weekend, plans are to put the body on the 31 coupe chassis i bought from studematt on here. Complete frame with all drive line will be for sale.

I think you should leave it on the AA frame. This is mostly an originality minded people site...... IMHO it would be a nice addition to the AA restored survivors.

Gary WA · 03-10-2012, 07:04 PM

And spoke wheels!!!Nice.

85930tudor · 03-10-2012, 07:57 PM

coupes are like cellphones, every body has one...But AA`s are kinda rare. I would keep it together. But it it yours and a good cab, good luck I like it ..Dave

It looks very restorable. I once had a rusty unrestored AA. I got it running and it was just about the most fun Model A I ever had. Those spoked wheels and hubcaps are probably worth some money.

Stupid Q: Will those huge wheels fit on a Model A? Maybe the hubs needa go with them.

JTW · 03-10-2012, 09:33 PM

No they won't.

Tom Wesenberg · 03-10-2012, 11:57 PM

I agree with keeping the 1928 AA together. It looks like a very good survivor.

Phils35 · 03-11-2012, 04:13 PM

I would do what you want , get it running and drive the crap out of it !!! That' s just my 2 cents .

Chris Haynes · 03-11-2012, 07:30 PM

Trucks are for men!

peters180a/170b · 03-11-2012, 07:37 PM

I would try to keep the truck together,,neat looking truck with the wire wheels . But its your project.

Deluxe Delivery · 03-11-2012, 09:27 PM

I'd leave it on that chassis...the wheels are killer ! And I probably wouldn't even paint it...but that's me.

Reds34 · 03-11-2012, 09:27 PM

Nice looking patina on the truck. I would keep the truck as is and drive the wheels off it.

Hey mytlow,

How early is your early '28? Engine number? Body number?

Thanks.

Dean

mytlow · 03-12-2012, 06:40 AM

Will look when i get it home, the guy i got it from who knows model a`s says around april 1928

Steve Wastler · 03-12-2012, 06:53 AM

I like the truck, if it were me, id keep it AA. One question, when did surface rust start being called patina?

JBohannon · 03-12-2012, 07:15 AM

Does the early AA have a worm drive rearend like the Model TT ?

Cider Mill · 03-13-2012, 08:32 AM

I have a 28 AA engine if you want to keep it on the AA frame. Does your new truck have an engine number with the double AA in it?

PM me if you are interested.

85930tudor · 03-13-2012, 12:12 PM

Bill I said that about coupes to see if you was paying attention!...Dave
