In early cars (before 1930s), grain alcohol (cheap whiskey) mixed with water (or sometimes lamp alcohol mixed with water) was sometimes used as radiator antifreeze. Also sometimes radiators would simply be drained every night during cold weather to prevent freezing, and refilled with plain water before the vehicle was to be used again.
