Looking for a coolant reserve tank cap that was used on an 1987 Shelby CSX.

Shelby was notorious for re-purposing things from other vehicles and I swear I have seen this cap before, maybe on a GM.

Does this look familiar to anyone? My undying gratitude if you know where it came from.

I have, they don't have it.

87 CSX is one year only and different from 88 CSX and 89 CSX

Part number 4467482

All the ones they say are available are the flat top style.

Someone suggested they were the same on Dodge Vans of the same era and I'm trying to find a picture now.

I think I'm on the right track- Found a picture of a 1993 Dodge van and it shows a similar looking cap. The B-van tanks are all the same from 80-92 so I just have to narrow it down from there.

Anyone with an 80's B-van on the forum care to take a look?

SCORE.

Found a 1990 Van which has the correct color cap.

Gary,
I think I have a couple of those in sitting on a shelf in my garage. If I have one, its yours for the cost of shipping. smile

My dad used to run that era of van for his business. We've parted a few out, and I'm sure the overflow tanks are in the garage.

I would be eternally grateful.

Converting the car back to its factory intercooler has been a nightmare of missing parts.
