31 open cab pickup #s

All of my books do not show how many were built. They show everything else. I know a lot of you guys have a large library that might have this answer. Thanks

Is the question about numbers? I have a '30, but know of no numbers unless you mean body part numbers. I don't have the production numbers. It would be very Ford like to list all pickups together. Good Luck: Fred A

Thanks Fred, Just trying to find out how many were built. I don't think very many.

In 1931 there were 4145 open cabs built.

Bob's 4145 number matches what I have found but there is more to the story. The following is from the July-August Issue of "Ford Life" magazine, Volume 3 Number 4, titled "The 1928-34 Open Cabs". This is the only good article I have seen on the open cabs since I have owned mine (1971). That number is world wide production, domestic production was 2637 bodies. Also The author the states that only about 40% of the bodies ended up on the pickups, the rest going to the big trucks. This gets us to 1055 1931 Roadster Pickups.
