What is this for? It's not connected to anything on the back side of the floorboard that I can tell?

That is most probably the grease cup for the clutch throw out bearing. What you see here is cap, which screws into a cup connected to the clutch throw out bearing grease fitting by a small, metal clad, hose. Unscrew this cap by turning it to the left. When it is exposed, the grease cup can be filled with grease, and, after being replaced, twisting the cap a turn or two toward tightening will force grease into rhe the throw out bearing and its collar.
Recommended grease type and number/frequency of turns should be included in the cars lubrication table.

Thanks, Jack, There is a brass elbow on the engine side of the floorboard but no metal hose connection going anywhere. I will check this week. It may have been replaced by a grease fitting underneath by the previous owner. I appreciate your clarification. I knew it was a grease cup but for what had me stumped?
