What is this from??

Got this GMC thermostat at a swap meet a couple years ago. I assume it's exterior mounted... Anyone know exactly what it is, years it came on, etc? Dealer add-on perhaps? Where would have it been mounted?

Probably a Tri-Five option. You'll have to ask a Chevy car forum.

Re: What is this from??

That would be a neat trinket piece, I would put one on one of my trucks!

But it is not $500 neat...

I doubt it'll sell for awhile, at least at that price. I guess we would need to see more of them for sale to understand what they are "worth"
