Ford AA 1928
General description :
Up for sale in our Dallas showroom is one classic truck, the 1928 Ford AA Pickup. Built for one purpose only, to be used as a work truck, this Model AA has stood the test of time. The history on these trucks are pretty interesting, only being built for a 4-year production line, the body, engine and transmission were used from the Model A to keep costs low and mass production easy. Of course the chassis was modified from the original trucks, built longer and stronger to accomodate a heavier usage on farms, deliveries, or even commercial use. The engine is a 202 cubic inch Inline 4, capable of making roughly 40 horsepower at 2200 RPM's, and utilized the same standard features of the vehicles before, a 6-volt generator system, basic water pump from the original Model A's and so on. The cab of this truck was never designed with flair or options, as these were designed to be a solid work horse, it features simple things like vinyl bench seat and only the important gauges on the dashboard. Now this isn't the same work truck it used to be, just you average wear and tear can be found since this rare model AA was restored and used as a parade truck. Restored to look as it did, this is one solid and fun weekend drive vehicle. The bed was painted, then lined in astro turf to keep it protected while showing off. This 1928 Ford Model AA follows a long line of pickup trucks, which led to the modern Ford F150, which to date is still the highest selling truck in the United States. Don't miss your chance to pick up one of the trucks that started it all! Options include Bias Ply Tires, Wire Wheels, Vinyl Interior, and a Numbers Matching Engine/Transmission.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
