It looks like an air canister used to fill those wierd collapsable donut spare tires.

I had a 79 Cutlass that had one. Prior to the inflated donuts, GM used spares in some cars that had basically a colapsed spare tire on a steel wheel. You screwed on the bottle with compressed gas and it would fill and expand the spare tire. I had to use mine. It worked good but only once.

Yes, that's it.

I bought one of these aluminum spares for my car and then needed to buy a CO2 cylinder like you have. Someone added it to your car. You could E-bay it for a few bucks and get a stock spare that's already blown up from the junk yard.
