Overflow cans

Did the 79-86 have over flow tanks?If so what did they look like I can only seem to find 87^. I know I can just use the newers but I was just curious.

on 85 and below like mine the windshield washer resevoir is built in to the overflow resevoir.. there is a divider..half is for the washerfluid..the other half is for the coolant overflow

RE: Overflow cans

AHHHHHH, ok that is what was throwing me off. I do still have that can. I just went into the attic a little bit ago and looked. Now I just have to move my ignition box (LikeI was going to anyway) or hide the over flow somewhere else.
Thanks Mjr
