    Just switch to the later housing. Easier to find the parts for. If you insist on keeping it, the last I knew Ike at Pangolin had some of the older bellows thermostats. As for the gasket, make one from a brown paper bag.

    I had the same housing and could not find the correct bellows-type thermostat. I found a used later-style housing (check with Ike/Pangolin or George/Rovers Down South), which fits and works perfectly. I'm also suspicious of the bellows-type thermostats, which seemed to be less reliable. There were a few other British cars from the same era that used them and they all abandoned them at some point.
