   Next  to  my tool kit w/spare parts, the next items I make sure are on
   board are my cell phone and contact list. The contact list includes at
   least  two  local tow services with roll-back trucks. I'd suggest that
   you speak to them first and be sure you can request a roll-back rather
   than a boom type truck should you become stranded.

   Also,  it  may  be well worth you while to pay for a year's membership
   with  AAA.  I think mine runs about a hundred bucks per year...doesn't
   take  but  one visit by the towing service to equal that. At least, or
   perhaps   in  addition,  be  sure  your  insurance  coverage  includes
   emergency   road  service/towing.  Mine  is  less  than  $7  per  year
   additional.

     I  am very satisfied with my door gaps. It's now been almost a year
     since I
     did them (ON MY STATIONARY CAR.)
     If  the  car  comes  down  off  it's  scaffolding, I'll consider it
     'driveway
     worthy'. If it makes it to the mailbox, it'll be road worth.
     One  of  my first stops, when (if) the car becomes functional, will
     be to the
     welding  shop.  If  I  make it there, then I proably won't need his
     help. (swap phone no.s,
     etc.)
     Thanks, Paul
