    Does a Model A ***le show the A or AA that is in front of the Vin.#? Mine does and one I was going to buy does not. Which one is correct?

    Model As show an "A" on the front of the serial number. The model "AA" designation was for 1 1/2 ton trucks."

    It is possible, however, to have something completely different based on ***ling laws in your particular state be it a shop build, fabricated, kit car, etc...
     
  3. Was the "A" on the frame number, the engine number, or both? Plenty got ***led with the engine number, but not all.

    the "A" is on both the frame and motor originally, not all frames and motors had matching numbers

    After 80 plus years you'd be lucky to have a matching motor and frame:D

    Check the frame or motor vin to match ***le. Maybe the A was left off on the ***le.

    CA for Canadian motors. Have heard Canadian models sometime do not have frame numbers stamped.

    Thanks guys, I know about the frame and motor #s. The question I have is about the ***le it looked a little fishy not having the (A) starting the Vin#. My 29 CCPU has it on the ***le this one did not it just had a Vin#???

    I have Pennsylvania ***les that are both ways. Some with the A or AA, some without.
    It just depends on who wrote the numbers down to begin with.
