My first old vehicle was an early '28 AA when I was 19. I really loved this youtube video. Thanks for posting, and I hope you also posted it on the Model A chapter here.

Looks like a home heating coal delivery at the 2:15 mark. I'm sure glad I didn't live back then and have to finish it up.

The coal truck with tandem axle is a rare thing. Aftermarket, or home made I believe.

Imagine, those loads with the same motor as a car, just lower gears

What a great relief when folks started heating with oil, just flowing through a hose.....

Thanks tcom, a GR8 watch. I remember in the 50s a few AA trucks on Put-In-Bay still working.
