    Does a 116" wheelbase sound to long to you? Just wondering, cause i dont have a bed right now, but with my frame done and axle sitting there, im right at 116.

    I'm pretty sure the A pickup's the same as the cars, around 103.5"
    The AA "real truck" I don't know.

    Sort of depends on the overall style, and how far the cab sits behind the front axle. If you have stock spacing from the front axle to the cab, you have a pretty long wheelbase. If the front end has been extended a substantial amount, it might have pretty good proportions. Do you have a pic, so we can judge how it will sit?

    The standard Model A ch***is,including light duty trucks, wheelbase was 103.5". The AA truck was 131.5", including the stake bed truck and panel truck.

    The AA truck actually came in 3 different lengths. Off the top of my head I don't remember what they were, but they were available.
