I maybe dead wrong,,I thought that you were going to a aluminum radiator? lots of nice aftermarket aloy ones to choose.
Or you could be cheap line me. When I first put my 63 together I cleaned out a 1 qt trans fluid bottle and painted it black. Therew it on as an overflow and figured I would by a nice one later. Well I just kinda forgot about it and it is still under my hood and has always worked fine. But there is many different ones you can buy if you want a nice fancy one. Ron
I just have the square plastic jug on my 66. Nothing special and I think I just found it in my buddies collection of stuff.
Again, the trans cooler I have is something that I had lying around. Most likely a new one I got at a swap meet for cheap. As long as you are looking for a cooler get one that has as much surface area as possible in contact with the fluid. Heat transfer is a function of surface area; the more the better.
Great hard line talent, Meepomous. I prefer hard lines myself. Nice work.
If you screw a cap on it with a hole cut in it just so the hose will seal, it will be legal to run that at any NHRA track. Ask me how I know. lol Some of the smaller tracks would probably let you slide depending on whether the tech is in a good mood.
Funny as I have raced at 4 different tracks and no one has said anything about it. But to be honest most of the tracks did not even have me open the hood. And like I said I keep forgetting about it but I think I will do what you said to be safe. Thanks , Ron
Thanks dude! Hard lining the coolant overflow might have been a little excessive but what the heck.

I noticed that too. Nice tubing work!!
Same as above,Any auto parts store should carry it.(photo)
I have never done it but have heard that you can use a factory washer bottle from say 70 dart with a manual floor foot pump mounted to the inner fender.
