Default 64-65 Thermostat housing

I understand no one is making repro housings for the 64-65 4 barrel cars.?
I might have the chance to have some cast, just like the originals, any interest out there?

Actually this 64-65 aluminum thermostat housing is difficult to find in good shape.

They deteriorate easily.

Yep I am. I'm sure you could sell them all.

Also needed by guys (like me) who may want to run a dual pass radiator with radiator inlet on the passenger side on their 1966+ cars versus factory driver side inlet. I recently had to hunt a good housing down. Not many out there. Go for it. Good luck!

I think there would be a demand. Maybe poll the street section. I think this forum has a bias towards original parts. If no one makes them anymore, there's gonna be a need. The originals get eaten up eventually.
