Tamiya Toyoda Model AA

The Toyoda A1 from 1935 was the first prototype of a passenger car built by the company that became Toyota in 1937. It was then revised and produced as the first production car of the brand under the names Toyoda AA (sedan) and Toyoda AB (phaeton). In 1937, the company, brand, and models were renamed Toyota. Later, the AA and AB models were replaced by similarly designed types AE, AC, and BA. From 1936 to 1943, 1,404 AA sedans were produced, after which the model was replaced by the more advanced AC. Additionally, 353 AB phaetons (including the military version ABR) were built until 1942. There was no direct successor to this model. Like its predecessor A1, the AA visually resembled the Chrysler Airflow. It featured a full steel body mounted on a steel ladder frame. The windshield and doors were also similar to those of the predecessor. The AB was the four-door phaeton version of the AA and was identical except for the fabric folding roof and the front-hinged rear doors. The windshield could be folded forward onto the hood. The mechanics of both models were the same as those of the prototypes.
