  What is the difference between the standard and deluxe cab pick up? Also does anyone know how many deluxe cabs where built in 1936?

  Physically -- nothing.
The deluxe items were trim items. Two wipers (so there would be a second wiper inspection cover on the passenger side), sun visor on drivers side, chrome windshield frame, twin door hinge mirrors, chrome grille sh*ll, two horns, two spare tires, sliding rear window, and rear bumper. (some say a dome light, but I believe that started in 1937)
According to Lorin Sorensen's book -- The Commercial Fords -- there were 2,570 deluxe 1936 pickups produced.

  Thank you for the information. I own a deluxe cab and don't have time to restore the truck, so I'm most likely going to sell it. Thanks again.
