1935 FORD MODEL AA FIRE TRUCK
1935 FORD MODEL AA FIRE TRUCK.
Ford Model AA is a truck from Ford. As the Model T and TT became obsolete and needed to be replaced, Henry Ford began initial designs on the Model A and Model AA in 1926. Basic chassis layout was done rapidly and mechanical development was moved forward quickly. Body design and style was developed and then outsourced to various body manufacturers, including Briggs and Murray. The designs of the Model A shared parts and materials with the Model AA Ford, notably the body, engine and interior. The AA usually received plainer interiors than their car counterparts. The Model AA followed similar design changes to the Model A during the AA's four years in production, often delayed anywhere from three to nine months.[citation needed] The mechanical changes and upgrades were done during production of the vehicles. Body changes that occurred between 1929 and 1930 were also integrated into AA production, but leftover parts were used longer in the heavy commercial trucks.
The Model AA Ford is powered by the same 201ci (3.3L) I4 engine that the Model A Ford used. The engine produced a maximum of 40 horsepower at 2,200 rpm. The engine featured an up-draft carburetor, six-volt generator, 2 and 4-blade fan, mechanical water pump, mechanical oil pump, electric starter and four-row radiator. All of these features were identical to the Model A Ford except the radiator. The engine could also be crank started if necessary by a hand crank that is inserted through a hole in the radiator shell. The Model AA was based on a chassis that was similar in design to the Model A Ford, except it was substantially larger and heavier to accommodate the work this truck was designed for.
Model AA Ford has a four-speed manual gearbox. The additional gear in the transmission is a "granny" or "creeper" first gear with a higher reduction ratio than the first gear on a Model A Ford to provide more torque to move a loaded truck. The second through fourth gears on the Model AA transmission were similar ratios to the first through third gears on the Model A transmission. The Model AA transmission also featured a lock-out on the shift knob for reverse that required a lever to be activated with the thumb so reverse could be engaged. This was done to prevent accidental engagement of reverse while the truck was in motion.
The gauge cluster includes three basic gauges. The cluster is in a diamond formation, with the start key and pop-out locking switch is on the left point. The top of the cluster holds the gas gauge, which directly connects into the gas tank, behind the dashboard. The right point holds the amp gauge, which shows the charge rate of the generator. The bottom of the dash holds the speedometer and odometer. Additional gauges can be mounted below the cluster if desired.
During the production of the Model AA, the wheels were also changed. Spoked wheels similar in appearance to Model A wheels but much heavier were used during 1928. Twenty inch 6 slot disc wheels were produced by Budd for Ford during 1929. In 1930, a new style 20 inch 5 slot disc wheel was adopted. These wheels were used for 1930 and part of 1931. The final wheels were a further modification of the 1930 wheel, with a raised center to reinforce the wheels and allow spacing of dual wheels in the rear so the tires would not rub against each other. The dual wheels were used for a variety of body styles, including dump trucks, tow trucks, tankers, fire trucks, and flatbed stake trucks. Wheel nuts changed with each new style of wheel to meet the changes made in the designs of the wheel. Special wheels were produced for ambulances, buses, and funeral coaches (hearses).

Beautiful wagon 🎉
Beautiful of wagon🎉❤
Very nice but I like the years before quad headlights better.
Styling masterpiece. The FE wasn't actually any better looking at all than these FD's... although to be fair the "pony car" Coke bottle waistline was quite a brief trend and wouldn't have aged well into the mid-70s. Are you sure it's 72?? My impression was FE was available in 72. I guess it could be a "runout" unit that might even have overlapped with new FE stock. I once bought a new car that was built several months before it sold and it was always a bit tricky whether it was (technically) the previous year, or the next year that was almost half over when I bought it. So why did I buy such old stock? It had amazing and unusual factory options and was really almost an unofficial semi-GT.
What a magnificent beast...! The south African grille and badging really suited the GMH HQ-HZ designed Statesman's. Thanks for the great upload 😁👍
I had a base model 77 cougar in high school 1987 - its was mint - wish i never sold it

Does this truck have a torsion bar front suspension like my dad's 1962 did?
Hello how to adapt this lights? I have troubles to adapt My vanette
The Cutlass was NOT a unibody design. It was a body on frame
What a lovely car!!!!!❤
Beautiful car and restoration and the emblem on the back a nice touch, you would of thot Ford would have put a search light on driver’s side being a Ranchero still could of been added a another nice touch…
The radio antenna is very cool
Big utility. 👌
Interesting they didn't use the nicer looking twin headlight grill in the Regal Hardtop like they did in the VJ Regal Sedan. I wonder why that was.
Very very nice van...congratulations in it's upkeep, a credit to you.👍 Interior,motor and sound would be appreciated 😁
This car is comfortable and will never let you down.
The Laurentian, was more related to the Chevy Bel Air and Not the U.S only Pontiac Catalina.

Hello, I was hoping I could have permission to take a still shot of this video and put it in a book I plan to publish. Would you be okay with this?
Yes, that should be fine, good luck with the book.
The XA grille sure looks w i d e without GT driving lights, or Fairlaine quad lights. Great car, and thanks for the upload 😁👍
Looks like a NZ number plate, possibly. Great example of "back in the day ". Thanks for the upload 😁👍
In the US this car got an entirely different dash for 1965. Nothing like this. This dash was used in the 1963 and 1964 Ramblers in the Usa.
Sadly they all seem to be gone now
Very nice.

Truly Unbridled Luxury what a beautiful example of Chrysler Excellence Johnny from Alabama
Having had real world experience of them all back in the day the PA and PB were good interesting cars the PC and PCE were pretty awful although not as bad as the Zodiac Mk4
Very nice i like it ... 😮😮
Everything about the Mercury line is iconic. The brand name itself, the Winged Messenger, the script badges, the model names, and all the extra little touches that set the cars apart frim their Ford cousins. I was lucky enough to learn how to drive in a ‘64 Mercury Marauder. Cars today have no personality
When it appeared, in 1967, it looked so modern, especially when compared to the dull Mk2 Cortina and ancient Austin Cambridge.
Cool car sweeeet ride maaate
We had a 1971 VG. In mileage terms it did equivalent to Two trips to the moon. & back. Awesome car.
I had the VX 490 version in white, rostyle wheels with chrome inserts and whitewalls!. I loved it, it was one of the best cars I've owned in my 70 years of driving✅🫢
This model was a far cry from the ‘59 elegance
'73's had the brake lights with horizontal-chrome lines. '74s were the vertical lines.
