A taupe-colored mat (BB-76230) was standard equipment in '32 big trucks. It differs substantially from the B-76230 mat used in commercial vehicles, and the array of '32 passenger car mats. The B and BB-76230 mats are shorter front to back than any of the the various passenger car mats as noted by Newc. The difference between the B and BB versions of 76230 is the much larger opening for the BB transmission shift lever housing and the additional levers that the smaller chassis lack, just like the floorboards themselves. I believe that the BB version was never reproduced and the B version is no longer being reproduced.
