QUOTE(RoadGlue @ Mar 11 2008, 12:33 PM) *

AAA card's a good idea, but it's not going to help you if you break down out of cell phone range. A lot of the areas around where I live and travel are cell-dead. Plus, why would I want to sit on the side of the road for an hour+ just to have some dude in a truck man handle my car when I can likely fix the problem myself?

Here's what I carry:

1. Alternator Belt
2. Clutch Cable
3. Throttle Cable
4. Oil
5. Voltage Regulator
6. Spare ECU (yeah, I'm nuts)
7. Spare Relay(s)
8. Spare Fuses
9. Flashlight
10. Electrical Tape
11. Small tool box with as many tools as I can cram into it
12. Extra set of points and condenser in case my Pertronix unit takes a dive
13. Haynes manual

I think I carry a few other things, but that's all I can think of without actually looking.


Randy,

Good list. Maybe more than I would have. Not really "spare parts", but I would add...

Bailing wire
Duct tape/racers tape
JB Weld
Hand cleaner and/or paper towels

At the moment nothing.

Does the hole in the Front Truck count?

In my Dad's car:

Old beach towel
Small Air Compressor
Original Jack in Rear Truck
Hydraulic Jack in the Front
Spare Tire & Lug Nuts
Lug Nut Wrench
Multi-tool in the Center Tray
Oil once in a while -The car does not leave town
And whatever is in the pockets & briefcases/backpacks
