Rare option ?
I have a 69 chevy. In the engine compartment there is a triangle shaped glass bottle, the lid says antifreeze & theres a bracket holding it to the core support, next to the radiator . Did this come from the factory like this or did someone add it on? Thanks, Tom

LOL, yeah its a factory "reserve" windshield washer bottle. Don't ask me how or why its just there. My truck only had the bracket for the bottle on the inner fender.

It has been modified to do that. I have the same bottle under the hood of my monte carlo. It has a decal on it that says "Kleerview"

I have only seen those on Camaros and cars like that, never on trucks.

I know it was also on the Corvair. I have not seen anything about them being on trucks either.
Some one probably added it years ago. |
