Ah. So a car like a Packard or Cadillac roadster could be ordered with an integrated trunk instead of a rumble seat? All the pics I've been able to find show the cars with rumble seats -- and I guess those have survived and been restored because they're unusual. A Packard with an in-body trunk wouldn't be such a curiosity to car collectors today, I suppose.
