[Mgs] Take along tools

[Max Heim]

Tire repair kit?

I'ver tried to dismount an MGB's tire using hand tools, and I decided it
couldn't be done. I would suggest "Known good spare, freshly filled, and a
can of Fix-A-Flat" instead.

Also add "a foot or two of fuel line", "assortment of hose clamps", and
"baling wire". Add chewing gum to taste...

it's the primer red one with chrome wires
