Of course I looked in the box marked "Don't throw away" and the tin labelled "Assorted springs" - and I even checked the dustbin. I have spent an hour on an archaeological dig of my workbench - I found lots of other useful things - but not THAT spring. Now i know I put it in a plastic bag labelled "Spring for speedo". Maybe it's in the woodstore, under the metal rack, in the paint tin marked "UNF bolts" that contains the shoe polish which I use for greasing rubber grommets? Am I the only one that does this? It will probably turn up when the job is finished - you know - in that tin with all the bolts, washers, and bent bits of metal which you don't remember where they came from? Until then....

' Hi Russ! I was thinking about it too on my way back from my last trip. I had other 10 LRs for company on this trip. As we parted in Eastern Arizona, the V8 people who lived within 100 miles of me were talking about a long 14 hour drive home. Well, with lots of mountain ranges where the passes were over 7000 feet and really STRONG headwinds I had a three LONG day trip home. I could have used the extra days vacationing. I was thinking of more powerful engine conversions and the time it takes to dive a thousand or more miles into headwinds (well it seemed like I was always driving into headwinds), going between 7 or 8 thousand foot passes and 3 or 4 thousand foot valley floors. And those speed signs, always taunting me. I HATED the ones that said to reduce speeds to 55 MPH when I was floored climbing a grade in second gear overdrive. I kept looking at the cars hurling themselves towards my from behind in high speed areas hoping that they would notice this comparatively stationary object before they reached me. I thought about engine swaps too.

There is a LOT more stuff there Tool kit You will need a dry place to keep the tools so they will not rust. I use a small ammo box. * Socket set - I have a three eighths socket set with both shallow and deep sockets, long and short extensions, short and long ratchets, breaker bar, and torque wrench. In addition, I carry a front hub socket. * Screw drivers - An assortment of slot and Phillips screwdrivers * Vice Grips and crescent wrenches - I bring one large and one small of each. * Combination wrenches - I bring a set from 3/8" to 1-1/8 " including second 1/2" and 9/16 " combination wrenches with a different length handle from the set. * Pliers - one gas pliers, one long slip jaw pliers and one long nose pliers. * Cutters and strippers - One large diagonal cutter, one crimper and one wire stripper. * Continuity tester * Clip lead with alligator clips on both ends * Hammer * Short crowbar * Punches and chisels - A small assortment * Drop cloth - I use a 5X7 plastic tarp. You can lay on it or use it as a rain cover while working on the car * Files - A set of jewelers files or a very small sharp angle file for refilling threads. A flat and a round file. * Feeler gauges * Light - A battery powered light that you can work by. Consumables * RTV - I use the blue RTV that comes in the silver tube. * Shop towels * Insulated wire - About 10 to 20 feet insulated wire #12 AWG * Electrical tape * Brake fluid - DOT4 * 90 wt oil and pump * Engine oil * Bailing Wire - About one three wire bale's worth * Sandpaper - one sheet of fine sand paper for cleaning electrical connections. * Fuses - a spare box * Bolts - You can't carry every size and length. Just take a stab of at least two each of what seems like common sizes to you. Get fine thread grade 8 bolts. Be sure to fit a nut, lock and flat washer to each bolt. Spare parts You should rotate your spare parts, using them on your car next time you need themthen buy new ones for spares. Hoses coated with talcum powder and put into zip lockbags will remain good for a long time. Wrap your new fuel and water pumps in oiled rags then seal them into bags to keep moisture out. The rest of the stuff should bepacked into zip lock bags where possible to keep moisture out. * Tune up kit - A new set of spark plugs, distributor cap. rotor, points and condenser. * Spark plug wires * Ignition coil * Fuel filter * Oil Filter * Gasket - for fuel pump sediment bowel * Water pump and gasket * Hoses - Top and bottom radiator hose, and length of heater hose equal in length to your longest heater hose * Hose clamps - Two of each size you use * Rear 'U' bolts - Two new rear 'U' bolts with fixings. Yes they can break. The rear 'U' bolts are longer than the front so will fit both axles. * Carburetor rebuild kit * Fan belt * Spare rear axles - Unless you are using the stronger Salisbury axles Lastly If you are not well versed on working on your car, bring the workshop manuals. If you may be near a phone, bring a parts catalogue, phone numbers for at least two mail order parts houses and a credit card.
