possible 1500 mile trip

[jimbo64]

Am thinking of taking vette on a relatively long jaunt -1500 miles and am wondering what you would take along as necessary spare parts since most are not available along the way. car is 64--------327/300 mostly original with new radial tires,coil, alternator-rebuilt. thanks

Since old Corvette water pumps castings are a little different I would take a spare or at least one of the rebuild kits. Points, condensor, cap and rotor. brush set for the alternator just in case. These cars really don't have a lot to go wrong with them when they have been maintained properly.

Along with the usual hand tools I like to have some elecrtical repair stuff too. A multi meter, jumper leads, side cutters, electrical tape........ and belive it or not I have used my bloody tire plug kit a couple of times too otfl

Cell phone and your AAA card.

Seriously, I've driven our 69 on several LONG trips, Baltimore to Bowling Green, Baltimore to Montauk, LI, NY, and Baltimore to St. Louis, MO.

NO problems. Don't worry...have fun. Chuck
