Can use some Thermostat and Rad Cap advice

speaking of thermostats, our 74 c10 had no heat. i bought a thermostat months ago for it figuring someone pulled the stat years ago for some reason. this is what i found. pretty much no stat. lol. put a new 195 in it and boy does that heat kick now. :)

temp gauge actually moves up some now. imagine that. lol
