Default Briggs Body Tag?

Can anyone tell me what type Briggs body this came off of? (411-A5760)Purchased a radiator badge and tag collection and this was in it. Thanks Dave

Might not be a Ford body. Briggs was building bodies for other car makers.

Every Briggs body tag I have seen on a Model A has the number stamped in to the plate, not from behind. I have never seen that number 411 either.

Didn't Briggs make Packard bodies also?
