Hey guys,
I told Smitty I would send this to the VV list, and since he has 3 pages, I figured I would send it in 3 emails.
Enjoy!!! And Smitty, thank you for the list... I have a lot of the same parts on my "list" as well... one of those things you do when you drive these cars on a daily basis.
Get well soon, Brother!

The following is a list of the things I carry in my car for cross country trips.  They have always got me home through engine pulls and disassembly and transmission rebuilds..  Not ALL are necessary but have been found to be nice to have when the need arose.                             Smitty
