Hot Rods Something you don't see everyday...

Update, here's how it turned out

 

Parallel parking made easy.

 

I dont get around like alot of you guys do, but I've never seen one of these before.
I am told it is a Ford windshield washer foot operated pump.
Have no idea why wires are needed???
Now that would be something to install on an old style hot rod...

 

The wires make the wipers cycle as the water or washer fluid is sprayed onto the windshield.
They were used up to at least 1964 on Fairlanes, Comets and Falcons, at least up here in the Great White North.

 

Anybody seen one of these before or know the story about this body?
Got me scratching my head!!!

 

We need pics that show the back end in more detail...

 

Looks like a 1920s people mover.

 

I dont have any pic's was sent to me by a buddy who wanted to know if this was a stock body style.
I dont believe so, but part of posting was asking the audience if they knew more or if any other pic's appeared.
Struck me as a all steel station wagon look, or steel woody!!!
