Miss Molly the Midget has a factory overflow containter, but on the
previous toy ('75 Chevy Monza 388 cid), I used a promotional plastic
drink container from a local fast food place.  I don't recall the
dimensions anymore, but it was a round cylinder with a large plastic tube
for a straw that ran thru the center of the cap; looked kinda like one of
those sports squeeze bottles.  I think it held 32 ounces.  I mounted a
couple of large hose clamps to the inner fender panel and slid the
container into that, and ran a length of hose to the radiator.  Cost me
all of maybe $2.00, and I got to drink the pop!
