My 53 Chevy had the same thing. I'm not sure about
the GMC's but the Chevy's where suppost to have a
mirror bracket that bolted to the roof right in front
of the center post. I think the truck shops sells a
chrome repo one. They also sell a stainless bracket
so you can mount it to the center post. I went the
stainless center post mount, it's more diversable
since you can mount it on one of the two center holes
in the center post.
Best regards,
Jon
