I almost....almost want to say it is a roll-a-car. They used them for moving cars around in a garage.

Are the two pieces hooked together, or are there two separate pieces of lawn art pictured there?

The right piece in the picture looks like it could drive a flat leather belt. The square
shaft would match a Model T u-joint.

It looks like the pieces may have been part of a one row lister (planter) but there seems to be a lot missing if that is what it is. There were a lot of different types of farm equipment made after the start of the industrial revolution. It looks to be a T handle on the draw yoke but that may have been modified to be that way.

It is a cart to make a model T engine into a belt drive power source

Looks like the front picture is a early power take off.
