From the site that gave you the "Gibson car", here's a pile of cut-up aircraft components "along the road" in Gibson City, IL in 1946. That's about 20 miles NW of Chanute, so maybe stuff that was cut up at the base after the war?
http://www.idaillinois.org/digital/coll ... 2233/rec/1I'm guessing a pair of B-25 outer wings, plus an inner wing, and a P-40 wing with the older star on the right; the thing in the middle looks to me like a cockpit floor with the control stick attached, but from what? Over to the experts!
