For Sale: 1929 Ford Model AA in Lees Summit, Missouri
Truck is for sale but currently on exhibit at Kansas Auto Museum. I
drove it 40 miles the day it went to the museum. Extremely Rare
1929 Museum Quality Ford Model AA Dump Truck. An extremely fine
example of a well preserved collectible that will likely not be
seen again. It was part of the Harrah's Museum collection and held
in a private collections only to appear available here briefly and
then probably will disappear again forever becoming unobtainable.
This truck is equipped with a hydraulic dump, wood and stake bed
"grain bed". You will note the rare "B" on the rear knuckle,
denoting the earmarks of the highly sought after factory 4 speed
transmission. This AA battery starts and hand cranks with ease,
runs, drives in all 4 gears plus reverse and brakes remarkably
well. The truck's hydraulic lever in the cab was disconnected by a
prior owner so will be remain disconnected and a new owner can be
the first to pull that lever in most likely many, many decades!
Galion and Wood Mfg. Co. built all of the dump bodies offered by
Ford on their heavy-duty AA and BB chassis during the 1930s. Galion
(now Galion Godwin Truck Body Co.) is the oldest known truck body
manufacturer still in operation today. This may very well be the
first Ford dump truck ever made, and as a prototype, as the
hydraulic dump was unavailable until the 1930 Ford model year. Dust
remains on the truck in its present heated and cooled museum
location and as shown in the pics because it dust was on the car
when it was discovered a few years ago. The wood floor was in the
bed and popped back into the cab but the dust as found remains on
this fine truck in the gallery. Authenticity is well demonstrated
with amazing period paint and patina and virtually no
deterioration. An easy find but please note the passenger side
mirror as shown in the pics has gone missing since photos were
taken. Certainly not an after thought is the wood bed. This was 1st
cutting lumber at the time of harvest (trees were hundreds of years
old before harvesting) and the truck itself is nearly a century old
so it is most likely that this bed is actually older than THE USA
itself! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IO6IgOtI180
