I've kind of had my eye on those fancy (but CHEAP) anodized, spun-aluminum water bottles for hikers. They're available in lots of anodized colors, have a mirror shine, have tight-sealing screw-on lids, and I've seen them for as little as $6.99...

Off the main topic, but the car in the pic is drawing underhood fumes and exhaust leaks into the interior. A screened hole or vent on the side of the hood, with a tube to feed the blower would keep down on the headaches in a fully enclosed machine.

I like that idea even better from a durability standpoint. You could also (maybe) weld the chassis attachment bracket directly to the bottle.

The only nice thing about Nalgene bottles is that you can read the level without removing the cap. They're also a little easier to fill.

I used one of these for an overflow on my Spitifre.

I thought it was a really nice bottle. I guess it is not as cheap as some alternatives, but it mounts up easily.

I bought this one for my old Jeep which didn't have one.

Nice and compact, plus comes in multiple colors and with a little petcock on the bottom for easy draining. $13.95 ain't bad either. Should have bought two to save on S&H since I'm going to use this for my setup.

I used a nalgene bottle, and a few bulkhead fittings from my stash. there's a hard line that runs down almost to the bottom of the bottle, the other hose is a vent hose. it works well.
