If anyone does know, I have the same one. It is light weight, was thinking it is off a cycle car, or something around that size.

To the best of my knowlege that is a accessory steering system for model T. I believe it was designed to have a better ratio to make steering
easier & prevent steering whip in revearse. There should be a coupling to the T shaft & a device to eliminate the gears in the column. A online
search may shed more light on the part. I have seen them sell for about that amount before. So in todays market that should be a good price.

Might be somewhat like this T accessory steering gear?, seems very similar. But didn’t see the T spark and throttle rod guides in that casting like this one has.
