The Ford Barn

I bought this 1930 AA commercial chassis basket case at an auction. The remnants of what I assume was an older body kit that was never assembled or completed came with it. I am working on getting mechanics sound and am a long way from bodybuilding but am curious about it’s origins.
There is a windshield frame routed to fit the commercial cowl with a wooden windshield sash. Two doors with sliding wooden window sashes. Two old door panels with regulators. There is frame work for cab and covered bed, (huckster style).
The iron hardware for bed sides and tailgate looks like some is original and some reproduced to match. All the wood is solid but weathered some from years of storage in a barn. I treated all the wood with preservative and stored inside for now.
Has anyone seen a kit like this or have any clues to it’s origin?
