I have a 1930 roadster pickup built in june of 1930 76-b, whenever I look for a production number it seems like all commercials are grouped together does anyone know or know where I can look to find out how many like mine were built, thanks

In the De Angelis,Henry &Francis book [ Model A as Henry Built It] they give 3,429 76B's in 1930 & 2,637 in 1931. This was US production. Ford Canada also sold them as many were shipped to New Zealand, India, Sth Africa & Malaya but all up probably only around 1000 & some would have been 76A's sold in 1930.
Im sure there are other sources for production numbers of body styles.

There are no records available today that can answer that question. The numbers available are for the 76-B which is an "Open Cab" regardless of whether it's on an "A" chassis or an "AA" chassis. It doesn't become a "Pickup" unless it's on an "A" chassis AND paired with a 78-A or 78-B pickup box.
