The motor comes from a Thermo-King refrigerated unit, if I ever need parts for it, I either go back to them, or to Mercedes USA for a 170-series car. (Circa 1949).

The thermostat housing looks like I can get one from a GM small block... I'll have to see what fits it though, b/c I"m sure the OEM part will be outrageous.

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.
