Default Dangling Proposition

OK, found this dangling in front of my radiator. 1987 vert. What is it? The last time I checked everything was working OK.
The first person to tell me what it goes to wins a Bloomington Gold hat that I will pick up later this week.

Exterior temp sensor housing. Should be bolted to the PS of the air intake area.

Hmmm, it looks like that air temp "participle" plugs in just to the left of where it is "dangling".

It looks like the connector for the outside temperature sensor. Does your car have the electronic climate control option??
