factory radiator overflow tank?
This is in a 1972 suburban I found today in a junkyard. Is the overflow tank factory?

Only way to tell if the factory put it there is the SPID. It is the correct one that would have been used by the factory or a dealer could have added it as well.

The spid is there. But when I open the gb, I about threw up. There's a family of dead mice in there. I opened it to let it air out. There's also a dead one in the overflow bottle also. STINKS!! I'm gonna give it some time and go check it out again

That is the correct one. Only way it came from factory installed was if truck was a govt. truck, rest were dealer installed or owner installed. My 71 bb truck had dealer installed one and it is the same.
