This looks like it might be an old automobile cooling fan; it looks like cast aluminum and is 20 inches in diameter.
Anyone know what it could be?

Thanks

Doubtful automotive, aviation maybe
Always looking for what interests me, anything early Dodge Brothers/Graham Brothers trucks ( pre 1932 or so ) and slant six / Super six parts.

I learned the "what's a henway" joke from Carson, but I had to say Bills line out loud to get it....

It probably was part of a Henway commercial refrigeration unit.
