I picked over a slightly different example at about that time, too...I found the hulk of the body of some variety of '30-31 Fordor with rear folding armrest rotting away in Mississippi or Alabama. The back story...the Fordor had spent the 1930's as both the family car and the farm truck. With back seat out, it was stuffed with whatever needed moving, including livestock. With seat back in, it was the family car. Come WWII and it was ineligible for farm truck gas coupons, on the grounds that it wasn't actually a truck, so the body was peeled off and replaced with one from a junked pickup. By the time I got there, only the body, which had been settling into the ground since about 1942, remained on the premises.
