Re: Conversation starter...Oh the possibilities
How hot does it get?
This would start limiting the possibilities.
Some blood red water would make folks do a double take.

Re: Conversation starter...Oh the possibilities
I agree with Dallas. Marvel Mystery Oil is always good for a conversation .... Add a small Marvel Mystery Oil decal to the glass for more fun things to talk about.

Lava Lamp Fluid - mostly water, oil ad some food coloring. The heat from the radiator may cause it to react.
The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.

Re: Conversation starter...Oh the possibilities
I agree with the fish idea. It would work like a manifold cooker, only with steam. Fish dinner when you arrive at your destination.

Re: Conversation starter...Oh the possibilities
I was think about the fish but would go with their little white bleached skeletons floating around inside. Maybe those balls they use in water thermometers.

Re: Conversation starter...Oh the possibilities
Nice! Looks like an old fashioned glass gasoline pump reservoir. I would put in some water colored with green and red food dye to resemble the reddish brown color of gasoline and put a “Texaco” decal on it. Bourbon or tea with a little red food dye would work as well. Jim Patrick

Re: Conversation starter...Oh the possibilities
I was thinkng coffee grinds but that would cause too many questions to be asked. MMO sounds about right. Finally something it's good for.
Forget everything you thought you knew.

Re: Conversation starter...Oh the possibilities
I like the idea of the tiny rubber duck on water but I would fill it with mannequin fingers to symbolize all the smashed fingers I've had restoring the T.
Just give me time to Rust and I'll be good as new. Wabi-Sabi

LMAO !!
How bout a little oil and some popcorn ?
If the T gets too hot, the popcorn pops and you pull over and have a snack while she cools off.

A bit of HOT salsa to go on the burritos warming in your manifold cooker !
Around and around we go and where we stop we check the gas oil water and tires.

Re: Conversation starter...Oh the possibilities
Probably a little roll of solder because that much weight will break the radiator neck loose.
I assume you know it's a drip oiler.
Looks cool, I would put something that would fizz and make a decal that said, "Dr Fitt's Stay Cool for Fords" or something like that.

Re: Conversation starter...Oh the possibilities
THAT'S A GREAT IDEA, THE DUCK I THINK WOULD BE PERFECT, A FEW YEARS BACK I RESTORED A M-D- INTERNATIONAL TRACTOR, I PUT A MODEL OF A JOHN DEERE IN THE GLASS AIR FILTER, IT WAS MOST A YEAR BEFORE IT WAS FOUND, NOW I SEE THEM A LOT AT THE SHOWS. GOTTA HAVE SOME FUN ONCE IN A WHILE.

That would be a good way to say that M-D- INTERNATIONAL left John Deer behind in the dust.

Re: Conversation starter...Oh the possibilities
Add an upper chamber and use it to brew coffee when you overheat. A nice cup to sip while you wait for it to cool down. No antifreeze.
