72 coolant recovery tank

[73satwagon]

Need coolant recovery tank and brackets. This is 72 only and was an option. Plastic tank and cap and upper and lower metal brackets, also the rad cap was special. Thank you

Or do what CHP did on some 69 Polaras like mine, install a Cadillac one...

Yup, I already have a NOS bottle and cap, and a copy of the service bulletin showing its installation.

In 1969?

I just looked up the GM part number, 1494755 69-72

This is the Motor Transport Bulletin

I'll have to remember this one. Thanks

In the 69 Polara/Monaco it is a tight fit, probably less than an inch to the headlight hardware.

All tough item's to find, some part numbers: recovery tank # 3574151 rad.cap (1972) 3574154 rad.cap (73/74) 3673891. The cap on the left is the 72, to the right is the 73/74.

WOW. I never got so detailed to think about correct caps. I bet you're the only person in the world who I could ask what are the part nos. for them and you could give it to me right off the top of your head.
You are good!
