Water Bottles
I just purchased a 1973 Cutlass Convertible with a 455. All in all pretty good shape. I am wondering where the washer fluid and radiator overflow go. I've attached a picture of what is in there. The washer fluid is bolted to the wheel well. The overflow is just sitting there. Looking at replacement overflows, and the go where the washer fluid is. What is the correct placement. Thank you. Pete

The VIN isn't really legible on the picture, so here it is typed out 3J67U2M198096. It's a 1972 with a 455 motor and 400 trans. The other picture shows the whole engine compartment. Most of the overflow show the mounting where the washer is mounted. Thank you.
Last but not least, here's the car on the floor.

Another hose pointed towards the ground to direct overflow, which defeats the purpose of having the bottle. It will hose down your engine if it ever got to that point.
Id just eliminate the bottle and reconfigure it as it should be. Looks out of place to me on such a fine 68 engine bay.
