Re: What is this?
Whatever you do, don't hit 88 mph until you have removed it.

Re: What is this?
I found the same component mounted on my firewall by a PO. It was part of a Kelsey Hayes No. 81739 brake system of unknown vintage. I removed the entire system.

Re: What is this?
OK - crawled underneath today and found it was wired back to the connector for the trailer. Pulled the wire back to the "hot Dog cooker/mouse trap".
Traced the other wire back to the contriller on the dash. Found that the controller runs back to the the brake resevoir. So it looks like it'll all come out pretty easily. Question though - if I remove the plumbing to the resevoir (and cap off the port), am I good to go? This won't affect the regular brakes - right? Heres a few photos for those interested (finally figured out how to upload them correctly):
