I was able to win the spirited bidding-war auction for this original GMC external thermometer, thanks to the good folks on this site that steered me to it.

It took a month to get here from one state away and I was sure it was lost in the mail, but it did arrive

No mounting bracket but there are images I can use to recreate one.

Vroooommmm...vroom...

now that I know what to look for, I see empty mounting brackets on coaches all the time

I hope I'm not bursting your bubble, but it's a thermometer.
 
Wow!, Darn spell checker

YES THERMOMETER, NOT COMPASS.
I'll correct that.... thanks

Here is the compass I got for Christmas
