The car is a 69442 automatic car, console bucket seats. It looks like it has been tied on there with a piece of wire for decades. I looked in the manual and didn't see anything and I don't think I've seen anything like it before. Just wondering if I should throw it in the trash.

Battery cable tube clamp? It's in the general vicinity...

Yep - that's the clamp for the battery cable tube setup.....and it's wired to the "flat plate" that is part of the setup. The clamp itself was attached to the "flat plate" (ie - mounting plate) with a short sheet metal screw.....the wire you have runs through the holes that the screw goes into.
