Would like to see the bottom and know what it smells like and what metal it is. Probably copper. If it's not a truck part it's a moonshiner's still part?:guzzle:

a magnet sticks to it, must be tin, very light and thin. smells like the mouse nest i pulled out of it. approximatly 5" in diameter

Antique Vaporizer inhaler. Stovetop. Value about $45. Too bad it's not copper.
