Mystery Canister

This canister disintegrated on my 89 convertible. It was mounted in front of the driver's side front when well. Was filled with black sand-like particles. Any idea what it is? TIA

Charcoal canister for vented gasoline from fuel tank and carburetor.

Good luck

AGREE!  On my '88 it was located on the Passenger side.  Back in the day an Emissions Inspector was about to FAIL me because of No Canister until I pointed out the location and existence of said Canister!

Thanks guys. Now, one other mystery. Do you have any idea where the turn signal flasher/relay is on my 89? I've all of a sudden lost both turn signals. Emergency flasher works fine.
