I use a soft canvas tote bag with tools fuses, test wires, carb parts,  
etc. and put it in the passenger footwell since SWMBO usually doesn't  
do long summer trips with me.  That and the Coleman cooler (the tall  
rectangle one) right in front of the passenger seat help to simulate  
the 150 lbs or so you're supposed to account for in making the car run  
true.  I kinda wanted to keep as much weight between the wheels as  
possible.  Spare parts that can't be had at the discounters or NAPA  
are tucked in around the spare tire...gas pump, water pump, heater  
valve, hoses, belts, etc..
