Mystery Parts Pile, ID Help Needed

[MMasa]

These parts came in a lot with some other parts that I actually wanted. I have no idea what they are however. ANY help that can be offered would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Looks like a 4cyl shift rod with the ball & socket fitting on both ends
Don't know about anything else

the yellow thing with the numbers on it is a tape measure.

Why would someone want to measure tape?

The horn body is very similar to an Excelsior horn used before 1920; with the exception of the bell, and mounting bracket. However, I'd bet that one came off a car.

Do any of the bell cranks or smaller stamped parts look like Excelsior?

To cut down on my tape expenses, I have been buying by the inch as I need it, so it iis necessary to measure off the amount of tape I am buying. DUH!
