Radiator overflow bottle

Post by Justin »

Don't have one, would like one. Prefer something original. Anyone got a spare?

If you decide you don't have to have the period correct original....................

You can go to the u-pull-it yards and pick up one of these out of damn near any Ford truck, bronco, explorer for about 11 bucks

Considered that. I may also use the lack of a coolant overflow to come up with something creative.

I picked up a combo Radiator Overflow and Windshield Fluid tank for $12.00 from a Ford Explorer. Angled and will fit perfect opposite the Battery.
