Year and grand totals by body type are at https://aafords.com/aa-body-types/#yt
An AA chassis table is at https://aafords.com/aa-chassis/. Of the 449,994 total AA chassis, 40% were used for complete trucks (i.e. with closed bodies and cabs with cargo bodies). The other 60% were produced with only a chassis-with-cowl or chassis-with-cab for IBS (independent body suppliers).

All counts are based on FMC ART ledgers (Ford Motor Company Assembly Record Types ledgers)

David, FYI - actually "450,000 units" would be the total AA chassis built. Of those units, complete AA truck units would be 178,000 (i.e. trucks with a closed body and trucks with a cab + cargo body). Your original question was "how many AA trucks?".
