What to bring on 1000 mile road trip with a truck I've never seen?
Hello all, first post!
I've bought myself my first truck, a 1969 Chevy C10 sight unseen over the internets. Here it is: I'm planning on driving it from Arkansas straight north to my home in Winnipeg, Canada this Friday. Google says this is just over 1000 miles. I might be a little stupid... What are some things I should be packing with me for my trip? I've never owned something older than 1989. Here's my list so far: -standard wrench set -standard socket set -phillips and slotted screwdrivers -sidecutters -vicegrips -duct tape -zip ties -hose clamps -fuses (what type would this truck take? glass fuses?) -lengths of wire -jumper cables -knife/razor blades Once I get there I was going to pick up: -jerry can -oil, brake fluid, atf, coolant -spare tire and jack if it doesn't have one Any spare parts I should stock up on in case of roadside repair? HEI module? Fuel filter? Electric fuel pump and some fuel hose? The seller says it's got a 305 engine and it clearly has a newer Edelbrock carb on it. Any other tips or advice? |
