i believe BOTH styles were being produced in 1-28.

The correct term is "very early" or "early", not AR. I don't care, but some on here will spank you if you continue to talk like that.

I don't think the closed cab pickup came out till later in the year. I have seen "early '28" open cab pickups.

I have a Dec 27 chassis #A4135. It has the 3 pc brake assembly at the center member. I have the early transmission assembly including the "baby lincoln" clutch pac. Gears look good. If you need something like this e-mail me at [email protected]

The Closed Cab Pickup, I believe, started production in August 1928 according to the Fargo Service Letter of September 6, 1928.

I stand corrected ... Mr. Plucker is far better informed than I, and his sources are impeccable/original.
