Brass Whatchamacallit

[mramsoil]

Dug this up in a school yard. It's 2" in dia., and externally threaded. It looks to me to be a foot of some kind.

Mojjax, thank you for that ID. I've seen a few other dug ones, usually in miscellaneous junk boxes at relic shows, and wondered what they were. Now I do know, with reasonable certainty. After reading your post I websearched the phrase "model T radiator cap" ...which led to this link showing the modern-made replacement for use by antique-car restorers. http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Brass-1...Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item1e6aa938ef
