Very clean, mint condition!

Is this factory vaccum reservoir?

That is one of the vacuum reservoir styles. You can see some of them on our page at Documentation/Vacuum Systems/Vacuum Reservoirs.

Clean indeed !!

I use that reservoir on my 78 Bronco for the AC vacuum controls. I have realized now that the reservoir can be secured to the fender with a weld like that. Mine is just loose there.

My bronco also has another monster size reservoir under the driver fender well, presumably for that long lost cruise control setup.

Well, I'm continuously learning new things here, thanks!

Sincerely, I would have bet that this was a nice DIY job done by a brilliant and resourceful amateur.

But an OEM designed by an engineer...

We had a humoristic SciFi comedy here, called "Dans une galaxie près de chez vous".

Their vessel was such a can.
Probably designed by the same engineering team?
