View Full Version : Wanted Aluminum Coolant Tank
I know one was just sold a few weeks ago.
But figured I see if anyone else has one laying around.
If I have to I'll get one of the stainless ones from a vendor.
Also has anyone been able to find a plastic alternative that would doesn't look totally out of place?
Just curious.
Thanks,
Just putting these where they would be helpful.
...cheaper alternative, is Volvo part no 3547466, a plastic header tank which fits the delorean nicely, you need a few off cuts of rubber pipe to install it.
it won't look 100% original but it works, quite a few uk owners have gone down this route, the part only cost £25/$35 over here, got to be worth it for the peice of mind it offers

Or the BMW bottel with low water switch.
Here you also need a new hose.

How will you attach that to the wall? Band strap? Looks like a Bill Robertson idea. $139 gets you a real SS bottle that will last as long as the car, never change colors, probably never crack or leak, looks like it belongs there, and mounts correctly.

I am not sure how the alternatives have been attached...
I'm currently attempting to fix the original coolant bottle with fiberglass.
