Whats the going rate for... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Longhorn Man · 12-26-2004, 04:31 PM

A dealer installed overflow bottle
I have one that I still need to clean up and paint. I am thinking of putting it on the longhorn, however, if it is worth a few bucks, I could probably be talked into selling it.
This is not for sale, please no PMs or requests...

I got a good one from a junkyard. The guy just said "take it" when I bought my front disk brake set-up. I got the metal "holder" with it too, along with the cap and hose.

CaperCat · 12-26-2004, 06:16 PM

I bought the same set up from the local salvage yard in great condition with bracket and cap for $6.00. I would have paid $10 but no more in my opinion. 'Hope this helps.

I don't think I've ever seen a factory overflow bottle. Any one have a picture? Has me very curious.

*dtlilly* · 12-27-2004, 01:28 AM

I got mine with original rusted metal cap at a salvage yard for $5.

**67sss** · 12-27-2004, 02:00 AM

didn't GM have some glass over flow bottles?

Longhorn Man · 12-27-2004, 05:44 AM

The glass ones were waher bottles, and that was before our trucks.
There were no factory overflow tanks, only dealer installed units.
I'll try to get a pic of the one I got later this evening.

Rod · 12-27-2004, 11:19 AM

67ChevyRedneck · 12-27-2004, 11:46 AM

I have one like the one on ebay, not the washer bottle, but the one rod posted. One hose goes to the radiator and I have the other routed so it drains below my core support. It's been on my truck a few years and looks like S***, all faded and old lookin. I think I got it off a 71 GMC. anyone know where you can get a replacement that will fit??

junkyardjohn · 12-27-2004, 12:12 PM

HERES AN AFTERMARKET ONE THAT I PULLED OFF OF A 72 PROJECT I'VE BEEN WORKING ON. IT'S MADE BY BLITZ. IF ANYONE WANTS IT, THEY CAN HAVE IT FOR SHIPPING.
