Car radios tended to use permeability tuning, and in the early days of WW2 there were some radio makers that made car radios for new production cars, but the car industry switched from consumer cars to military vehicles for the war. Similarly the radio industry soon stopped consumer radio production and started making radio equipment for the military. But there were these now orphaned car radios to do something with, as well as a bunch of radio cabinets without chassises. So they were Frankenset-ed together in production to get them sold to consumers who needed a new radio. Maybe yours was one of these.
