Vacuum tank on 69 toro?
Hey i was wondering if anyone can post a picture of the vacuum reserve tank for the headlight assembly when it is installed in a 69 toronado. I currently am missing this piece and want to make sure i purchase the right part in the future. anything would be greatly appreciated!

Here is my vacuum reserve tank...
These vacuum headlight systems are really a stylish feature, but they tend to be a royal pain from time to time. As you can see I just keep my control valve setting on top of my reserve tank for easy access. Every once in a while the little slider inside my control valve does not want to move and my headlight shutters will not open. When this happens I typically can spray Aerokroil in each of the ports, hook everything back up, and then it works great for a few more months. I am also including diagrams for the complete installation of the 1968 and 1969 Toronado vacuum headlight system. This has made troubleshooting a million times easier for me...
