Trunk for 1935 Buick Special

[1939 Cadillac LaSalle Coup 14]

Gentlemen, I have a 1935 Buick 46C.  It is a convertible with a rumble seat.  It also has a large trunk mounted on a platform hanging off the back bumper.  Does anyone know if the trunks were factory installed or were they an aftermarket item?  My trunk seems a little large for the space.  In looking on line, pictures of model 46C's show a slightly smaller trunk.  But the trunks I see on model 66s look the same as mine.  Is it possible that my trunk was actually designed to fit the slightly larger model 66?  Or is it possible that the first owner bought the trunk from an after market manufacturer and then modified the base to make it fit.

Thanks for your help.
