Whats the junk in your trunk?

[Ghoste]

Yeah, yeah its my second thread about trunks today.  The other one was strictly about show car detailing though, this one is just being curious about what everyone carries around in the trunk.
Right now, I have everything out of mine to get ready for the drive to Columbus next month.  In the 67 I kept it empty most of the time except for jack, spare and roadside tool kit.  I had a different load for drag racing and another one for long haul.  In this car, up to now it was just a factory jack and a rim for a spare.  I'm cleaning it up nice and putting a spare with a tire on it (good idea huh? ) and a reduced long haul pack from before.  I guess all this trunk work got the wheels turning is all.

i do not have a pic of mine, but what is in my trunk is my oe wheel well chrome (that im trying to decide if i will install or not), all the components to rebuild the front end still in their boxes waiting for cold weather, the wood grain steering wheel that i purchased (which will be installed before too long), and cleaning stuff. i wont lose it if its in the trunk.

[Ghoste]

Haha, yes I've had cars where the trunk was a parts storage locker too.

Oh crap, I never DID figure out what I was going to do about a spare...

Not much stuff, but important stuff.

[tan top]

at the minute

  2 fender gripper covers
 2 vinyl fender covers
 three bath towels    

 what I use , to cover fender tops & grill top frame ,  when  doing stuff in engine bay  

your eyes are not deciving you    the spare is a little more to the right  !! , I fabricated a new spare hold down bracket & moved location , so I could fit a 255 x60 x15 tire on a 15 x 8 wheel in the trunk   , wanted all 5 wheels & tires to be the same  

[Ghoste]

Thats funny, was just trying to figure out how to fit a 15 inch spare in mine last night.

Grandma.

[stripedelete]

She looks tired......

[Old Moparz]

She always liked going to all the car cruises so I promised her she wouldn't miss any of them.

[Ghoste]

You don't have a motel by any chance?

[Old Moparz]

No, just a road side flower shop.

[Ghoste]

And no creepy house on the top of the hill beside it either?

[Old Moparz]

Why is it that stereotypes always get dragged in?

[Ghoste]

Hey, no disrespect to Grandma.

Hey, no disrespect to Grandma.

None taken.  

Years ago, 1985 to be more accurate, I was on my way to the spring or fall Carlisle swap in my Satellite convertible. I left after work on a Friday & while I was on the interstate my alternator gauge suddenly maxed out. It was 10pm or so & only a gas station that sold batteries & fan belts was open. The guy pumping gas couldn't help until my battery exploded in the parking lot. He then sold me a battery.  

From that point on I have added to my spare parts that I carry with me, a voltage regulator & a ballast resistor.  

The good thing is I don't drive an old car for my daily driver anymore.
