That's the generic '82-'87 tank various people sell. It'll fit an '83, but it's not correct. As far as I can tell, no one sells a correct one.

The grundgey yellow one is the original one. The new one is the one which is sold by EVERYONE as a 1983 replacement. Actually, I think that it is correct for an '86-'87, but obviously different than an '83.

That's the windshield washer tank you have. I'm looking for the radiator overflow tank for the 83 camaro.

Doh! You're right, I didn't read it very carefully.


The coolant overflow is pretty much correct.
