Brass latch thingy?

[COUNTRY GIRL]

Found this in the yard yesterday, all brass except for maybe the round knob. Has the letters MLC (may be a G) stamped on the back. Moves (or used to) in two places on the latch part. Any ideas on what it is and or what it was used for? Thanks for the help.

Kim - holy $hit. How'd you find that

I cannot believe that you guys and gals have not worked this thing out yet Can you not see that it is a "itchinmybutt" that comes from an alien craft? It is used to change the frequency of the module sparticus on the main quartz focusing lazer module that is used to send lazer rays for speeding up communications to us poor people.

And I thought the people here were clever

It was a complete accident. Looking at hit or miss engines, only thing on the site that was not an engine. I was looking for the brass iece to be on engine not a washer, cool huh?

Michelle I thought you were my friend. I think the rod on the side of the washer goes through the hole and the piece with the screw holes is mounted to the lid, the latch locks the lid closed so the rug rats don't climb in side.
