I just bought a 195F thermostat at a local CarQuest. This T-stat is made by Stant.
I brought it home and compared it to the ones Jermafenser posted about in that other link.
From what I can tell, this Stant T-stat is damn near exactly like the Motorcraft RT139. It has the flange at the bottom and what appears to be the extra copper pellet. I'm really not seeing any difference between the two.
CarQuest part #30089

Thanks for part #. I'll go tomorrow and ask for one for inspection.

You can order the Motorcraft from Amazon still.It is from a supplier of theirs,and the shipping is almost as much as the thermostat.Or,you can pickup a Stant #13469 just about anywhere,and it is also a 195deg regulator.The Stant has the same operating priciple that the Motorcraft works on.I use this regulator myself,and have had no problems with it.
