Default Odd 1932 Tail Light Stand

I ran across this tail light in with some other stuff recently. it appears to fit as a right side 32 tail light stand but its surely different then anything ive ever seen and seems like it would be upside down with the wiring exposed to the top.

Anyone have any idea? maybe not Ford at all?

Thanks
Zach

Not knowing squat about much of anything, I would probably have GUESSED a "pick-up" piece.

Beefy! Looks like it bolts to the bumper bracket rather than the fender or the roll pan.
I'm going with road grader.

Not likely aftermarket '32 Ford given where the wire exits relative to the mounting bolt holes.

I bought a box of 32 parts at a swap meet last weekend and found this part in the original box. I have no idea who the original selling vendor was. See pictures.

Appears to be a somewhat bent out of shape used original left-hand '32 tail lamp bracket.
