1981 RHD X1/9
I plan to drive the car home some 450 or so miles (about 8 hours) and hope that all is well with the car. This is exciting for me as I have only seen about three photos of the car and hope the reality is as good as the description has been. I have no reason to think the car will not make the trip but it is an old FIAT so who knows.
I plan to travel some back roads to keep things interesting and will be heading south from the DC area on Saturday afternoon and Sunday on into Knoxville. I figure if I can get at least 200 miles from home, the AAA Platinum will do the rest.
So, what tools to pack in an emergency kit for a '74 X1/9? The timing belt and other service is current and shouldn't be a problem but the car does have points and this did leave me stranded once so an electronic dizzy and ECU will be in my box 'o spares.
Wish me luck.
