Thats why I painted it. I almost did make that mistake when I first got it. Now maybe I will at least do a double take.

Back to the bottle, my '76 pushes a lot of coolant into the reservoir, is yours large enough?| PettyVTX wrote on Thu, 13 September 2012 12:16 |

Mitch It is big enough and it is marked in pints.clear enough to see the level. I bought the bottle at Tractor Supply on a clearance shelf for $1.50 and thought why not. It runs down the side of the radiator. The only drawback I see is when it comes time to change the batteries I may have to take it out for the extra room. Not Trying to keep it original just trying to come up with some new Ideas, To keep the thing on the road and my lazy bone kicking in. If I can do it easy and cheap and right im all in.

Ted, I like the bright yellow oil line. Should help stop a very expensive mistake.
