Would like to buy one for sure, and might take a second one if the price is acceptable.  1955 Thunderbird.   78250-5405 shipping location.   Joe-JDC

Joe.  Frank Rice is the original source for the aluminum 'Bird thermostat housings.  The castings and machining work are excellent and the bypass tube is stainless steel.  While a long time Forum member, I'd recommend emailing Frank direct at peglegrice@frontier.com with your inquiry.

Hope this helps.   Smile

Joe: Unless he's out of stock, John Mummert lists aluminum thermostat housings on his site @ $56.00

When I asked, he only had car and truck housings, no Thunderbird.  Joe-JDC

Still looking for aluminum thermostat housing for Thunderbird.  The one I received was for a car or truck, not T-bird.  Anyone have a spare, or even a real stock one that can be blasted, cleaned, and painted?  Joe-JDC

Repro housings are available from the TBird parts suppliers.  CASCO shows it in their catalog.  Part #8592
