I only carried a small tool kit, a fan belt, a spare pre-timed distributor, and a spare carb (all under the back seat). Never needed any of it. Car performed for over 10,000 miles, flawlessly.

There are those who believe that if you don't carry the spare stuff, then you will need it but if you do, then you will never need it.

One 20 degree morning, the Tudor didn't want to start. I ran some 800 grit wet/dry sandpaper through the frosty points and she started right up!

Please keep us updated on your daily driving adventure! The Model A is VERY reliable when restored properly and not overly modified.
