Yeah your local auto parts store can/will have some universal fitting overflow tanks.

Since your in Texas you might want to be willing to make a drive to either your dealership or www.50resto.com (in Texas) that sells OEM overflow tanks...

I think they sell aroun $50 bucks or so...

Good Luck with the search

David is right on. the generic from the parts store (under 10 bucks) works well - i run one on another car. some folks (Jerry Beach for one) tuck the reservoir inside the driver fender - it is pretty out of the way. you will lose the idiot light if making such a swap.

seems to me that Texas Mustang (Duh) and another resto house are out of texas.

good luck.

Would that be Dallas Mustang

I've ordered from them before...did just fine

I need to use a overflow tank so I can have more coolant "reservoired" to help with idle overheating issues.
