I don't have the truck here yet, or I would just look, but I'm looking at a 1928 AA, which has been described as an "early" model, and the steering wheel is shot. Currently, it's been wrapped in jute rope, which is unworkable. As in, replace day one when the truck gets here.
What I found looking around, is that there are apparently different sized steering wheels, but more importantly, there seem to be splined or keyed mounts.
Does a '28 AA by definition use a splined wheel, or a keyed one, or do I just have to wait for the truck to get here? Thanks!

Early 28 AA would have a splined red wheel.

Wait till the truck gets to you. Someone may have changed the steering column. In the future, please ask your question on the Model A forum. This section is not for car questions.
