Default Thermostat or not

I have a 2wd cos. Im stripping the 2wd engine cos i have a new one to put in (4x4 engine)

I took the elbow off the 2wd block and there was no thermostat there.......is there a reason for a cossie running without a thermostat?

I got a new one outta work, and im planning on putting it in when i change the water pump over, but why would someone remove the thermostat???
