Re: New Guy Old Truck

Just a little bit of progress this weekend. I don't want to have too much apart or in work so I don't confuse myself or misplace...

Re: New Guy Old Truck
Haha, you are both right. I agree things should be done correctly. I agree that some old farmers like my grandpa used "creativity" get things back on the road.
That is why I am asking questions....

Re: New Guy Old Truck
Help.
I worked through my wiring questions and ordered from Sacramento Vintage Wiring. Thank you all!

Re: New Guy Old Truck
Yes, it had some work done. My uncle and I figured around 1977 it had a repaint. Thats about it. The inside was painted also at that time but no panels were ever replaced. All the gauges are there,...

Re: New Guy Old Truck
Wow! What great feedback from the forum. After the reading I have done, and your responses, my thoughts are to keep it 6v and get a harness from either Sacramento Vintage Ford or Rhode Island Wire. ...

I got dimensions of the door.
Top to bottom 42 3/4
Front to back at handle hight 27 5/8
Does that narrow...

Re: 1930 Model AA- What is it?
It has been bugging me what the cab of this truck is made from. Is it a panel cab cut down or is it the original cab with the back cut off for some reason? I finally got a chance to get a picture of...

Re: What to do with this old '27 T?
Thanks all for the replies. I would assume at some point I will sell it. Knowing that it can be restored and not just a parts car helps me with how to advertise it.

1930 Model AA- What is it?
Is there history of Model AA’s being made into grain trucks?
I have heard mention of it other posts. Is this a model that was offered, a “normal” mod that was made, or am I seeing a one off?
