This was on a table at an auction with a bunch of fine china around it. I kind'a knew by the vacuum fitting it was for old cars & trucks. Anyone know if it was specically for any particular vehicle or an add-on anybody used. I saw a model A with one on the internet used to defrost the window. Because of the fine china being bid on I overpaid...$25.00.
I guess I was rescuing it haha!
