One thing led to another, radiator on the coupe had a leak thought do some maintenance. To my surprise my thermostat housing was starting to deteriorate. Granted this is going on its 9th summer, luckily it didn't break. Replaced it with a GM factory die cast.

Wow, amazed it lasted that long and didn't leak...I think every one I had need to be sanded to make them flat enough to seal. They are junk, no doubt.
