What other models/years would be correct for a small block?  Are E bodies the same?

It is the one that attaches by the charcoal canister in the front of the passenger horn.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Does anyone know of someone that reproduces these?

I can only find the longer, skinnier ones.

No one reproduces. They are rare which is surprising given the production numbers for 73-74 cars.

Are you missing the overflow tank, or is yours faded/discoloured?
I cleaned mine up and then sprayed it with Satin white Fusion spray paint for plastics by Krylon. Its cleaner looking and is closer in looks to the new windshield wash bottle I purchased. Hopefully somebody thats doing the windshield bottles will do the overflow containers in the near future

I am completely missing it.

Original owner left car to nephew.

Nephew had it in shop for painting.  They shaved the side marker lights and fender indicators, and put in gray primer.  :brickwall:(outer only)

A bunch of parts sat out, horn, tailights, wiper motor, etc. etc. 

Then he ended up in jail or something and needed money and was going to part it out.

I decided to save it (original metal, rear end, and tranny in good shape) as is was one of those factory sunroof cars and other than being a small block was cool optioned and colored.

I have it together and running (with some random 79 truck 318 on its last legs of compression) and plan on putting a 360 or stroked 360 in it.

I have had to add lots of little things that were missing or trashed, like the horn,
washer resevoir was not too bad to find, charcoal canister a little harder to vent my new tank to (74 tanks are not cheap),

it has the huge radiator, found a shroud for it finally,

but the overflow is hard to find.  I will probably end up finding something that fits where it goes and rolling with that.

I could not salvage an old, brittle cracked washer resevoir in a 71 AMC Javelin,
and they make repos for that.

If you can find a repo for a freakin' AMC pony car,
but not a Mopar B body,
you know there is about zero love for the 73/4s.
