For sale at gateway classic cars in our st. Louis showroom is a 1928 Ford model aa. The model aa was the replacement for the model tt in Fords heavy duty truck line up. The aa was much more user friendly when compared to the tt. The aa truck series was very similar to the new model a passenger vehicles, sharing the same engine that produced 40 horsepower at a very low 2,200 rpm. The aa series was equipped with different gearing to take better advantage of the low rpm power band and making it easier to haul heavy loads. The downside was a lower top speed. Heavy duty equipment consisted of a four row radiator to provide better cooling, a heavy and larger chassis to accommodate heavy loads and over sized brakes for all four wheels. Different wheelbases and configurations were available along with cab and chassis for consumers to retro fit their own custom body. In some countries, the model aa is still being used today. This 1928 Ford model aa was restored in the early 80's and maintained throughout the years. Painted dark green with a black vinyl interior and nicely complimented by an oak stake bed. Being a 1928 and the first year for the aa, this truck is equipped with wire wheels painted black. These wire wheels were specific to the aa and were much more heavy duty than the standard model a. Inside is the standard interior, three gauges showing fuel level, speed and amperage. On the steering wheel are the head light controls, the left stick controls timing advance and the left is your throttle control. For more information on this 1928 model aa, call or stop by our st.
