I am currently working on a Deville and was wondering where in the world is the drain for the radiator and the location of the thermostat. I have a good idea but don't want to mess this up. Please help thank you

Drain is on the drivers side front of the radiator tank, you can see it through the front grille area of the bumper fascia. 19mm socket fits on it, there is a hole in the lower splash shield for access, I just remove the shield to minimize the mess. Follow the lower hose to the water pump cover, that black housing that is bolted on is the T-stat housing.
