Anyone add a radiator over flow tank on their charger? I have a 70 looking for ideas to replace the old milk jug that some one put on there

I have one like this on my 69. It fits right up next to the radiator.

Never had any issues. I can snap a pic and post it tomorrow night.

why not to use the repro E body piece ? it seems pretty much universal for earlier Mopars too, since attachs to the radiator bolts and follows the fan shroud contour.

sure is not cheap

this would be the one. Althought 72 was the first year for them as an option, that's not the correct one, just the only one available ( but pretty much similar ). The one on 72 B bodies was hold by a bracket over the radiator itself to the upper beam of the radiator support



look at this thread to note how it mounts and looks... and maybe some issues or not you could get on your car. Its at your own

I have seen these assembly kits running between $160 and $190 rate. Sure is not cheap but better matched for the mopar look if you ask me
