Lever attached to steering column???

I'm trying to figure out what this is for (attached picture). It had a hot wire to the + side of the solenoid on a 1974 F100 Ranger XLT. It has a hard line that's also connected to something in the engine compartment. Someone thought it might be an aftermarket trailer brake. Thanks!

Lever connected to steering column. There's a hard line coming out of the side connecting to something in the engine compartment.

That's a junk antique trailer brake controller. Remove it and all the electrical and hydraulics.
