Just get into the cooling section and scroll through looking for something that will suit. I doubt they would have anything Land Rover specific except bits for the little Buick V8. Land Rovers are not regarded as proper motor cars by the hot rod and custom car fraternity.

What is impressive is that one could assemble a complete street rod like a T-bucket or a Deuce from their catalogue.

If you ever get near Lincoln, Nebraska, visit the Museum of American Speed which is on the opposite side of the parking lot to Speedway Motors. Allot most of a day. Well worth it.

I had late lunch near there one visit at Hank's Anti-vegetarian Restaurant. Sadly now disappeared. I had pork chops with baked potato, sauerkraut, green salad. Four plates, one each for the chops, potato and sauerkraut, salad, and bread rolls. I don't know where they found the hog they got the chops off but one would not have enjoyed meeting it on a dark night in the bush. Bloody enormous as was the spud. Beer was from Kansas City. Bloody good stuff too.

There are a couple here that would suit most any vehicle.

The latest LRO has D2 tanks advertised from Allisport for/from GBP 156 and can have sight glass.
Looks to be designed to fit like the OEM one.

Regards Philip A
BTW they are not overflow tanks which are usually not pressurized , but reservoir tanks which are pressurized.

I've got a stainless steel one on my 130. A bloke was advertising them in the local club magazine.(a long time ago) I got it for a really really good price, and it's been faultless.
