Finally got around to putting a coolant recovery system / tank on my '71 Chevelle. I know they did not have one from the factory back in the day but I like the idea of being able to top off the re-cored 4 row Harrison all the way and a bit of reserve in the recovery bottle. Also keeps an air bubble out of the radiator and hopefully will lessen any corrosion to the shiny new cores. I used a w/s washer bottle and mounted it to the lower portion of the pass. metal inner fender below the battery. Put a couple rubber washers between the mount and the fender. Same system as I put on my restored '71 Chevy fleet side 4x4 which works great.
