OK, i'm pretty sure I am going to drive out, instead of trailer the car for the June gathering.

First I'll give you my car history, followd by what I plan to do, and bring along with me, and then I will be open for sugguestions.

Car:
74 914-6, 77 2.7 cis motor, recent full rebuild in 94 10k since then. Last summer I did valves once, and changed oil. I did drive it from LA last spring to CO no problems.

My pre trip plans:
Change oil again, along with putting swepco in tranny, change clutch cable (I can see a couple of broken strands) bleed brakes, inspect wheel bearings pads ect. and custom make a platic garbage bag engine cover in case GASP it rains...
Oh an maybe a clear bra for my paint wub.gif


What should I order now for spares to bring confused24.gif
I always sort of winged it, and have gotten lucky twice from CA to CO in teeners, and want to be more prepared this time just in case.
Also, I have my AAA card cool.gif

My small spares bag typically contains a fan belt, relays, fuses, points, cap, rotor, plugs, throttle and clutch cables, a variety of zip ties and a box of assorted metric hardware.

Hope this helps,

You can buy it here now. Only took....... what, 10 years for it to arrive. Good stuff.
