I think this is a hood release handle taken off a 1958-1960 ford thunderbird. I could be wrong but it looks the same to the a few I've seen online. Its still in fairly good condition. Has some minor pitting and some small scratching but nothing to major on it. With a little work it will look really nice. The hood letters still look really good. I took pictures of measurements of it as well. Still has the machine screw.
