A wild guess is that it might be a cover for a heater. They had a bunch of different heaters back then, many different styles and shapes. Again, I didn't find anything similar, but that's a guess.

I'm thinking stainless, but it does have some surface rust on the back side.I had the thought of heater as well but couldn't find any pics of anything like it there either. Maybe it'll just have to become garage decor.
