Car of the Week: 1930 Ford Model AA Truck

[cool old truck ]

John Shaw is a Wisconsin guy who had plans to restore an old truck of some kind. Never in a million years did he think he’d wind up finding one living quietly in retirement in Southern California some 2,000 miles away.

Somehow, however, Shaw and his venerable 1930 Ford AA dually seem made for each other. Shaw is a salt-of-the-earth kind of guy, and the rugged, no-frills hauler is right up his alley.

Disappointed. Was expecting a beer truck.

Oh wow a Walton's truck! (From the show) I would love a chance to drive a truck like that or a Model A Ford Car from the 20's or 30's. So freaking awesome. Just look at that and think about when it was made. Think about everything being made at the time and the experimentation. So awesome.

Undeniably cool. Strictly for devoted hobbyists though.

yea, probably.
but i would be very tempted to drive it to work on fridays in the summer when there's no rain in the forcast.

I've never driven an old car like this. It would be cool to see how it drives.
