Default Identify this cowl vent

Ok, I am fairly certain this isn't corvette related item. This is a cowl vent flap from some type of car, I don't have the heart to just throw it away. I would like to find a home for it. Any opinions on what it might belong to I would appreciate it. Its about 30 inches long. Thanks, Terr

30 inches is sorta long for a vent flapper. To me it looks like a sunroof wind deflector, very similar to the one on my 88 FIERO.

Wow, very similar but I don't think it is that. This on is steel and based on construction I think it is older stuff. Steel. Terr

Thanks for responding!
