Travel kit

Featured Replies

So for long road trips, what do you pack in the emergency kit??

Belts, fuel pump, whatever?

Looking for ideas to build a roadside kit

In addition to things like first aid kit, Mylar blankets, stable calories, flashlight, points and condenser, jumper cables, fuses and a bulb or two, I take a tool roll, flares, safety triangle, replacement wipers and a small utility shovel (winter travel). (OBD II tester is for the other vehicles in the fleet.)

Aside from my "all the time" tool kit, which includes some basics like bailing wire, zip ties, a bag of nuts and bolts, fuses, and a length of para cord.

I have a Alt. belt, a cap and rotor, points and condenser, a set of plugs. Then if I have been working on any particular part I might bring related items for that.

I.E. I rebuilt a 606.52 distributor to replace my 612.52, So for a 200 mile drive I led for my Z club last weekend, I had the old distributor and parts and tools related to that. Including a timing light. No issues arose on the drive. If everything seems to be working I will remove those items for future drives.

I always have my AAA card though. 😅
