A spire nut is a simple pressed-metal fastener with sharp prongs that bite into a hole in thin panel material, giving a threaded point to run a small screw into without needing access from behind the panel. That's exactly the kind of job it does here, holding on side panel trim or badging.
This one appears across catalog listings from the mid-1960s. If you're replacing side panel hardware and need one of these, it's worth having on hand since they're easy to lose or mangle when removing old trim.
