Daily Drivers - What Do You Keep in the Car?
As far as replacement parts, or things you will need to keep the car on the road. I daily drive mine and know there are plenty of things that can go wrong but can be fixed with a small part. Problem is that might take a few days to get it shipped.
What all would you stock up on in order to keep your Cobra on the road?
Things Ive got so far:
Quart of oil
Quart of Mercon 5
Water
Couple tool kits
Flashlight
Blanket
Gun(soon)
FRPS I may add. What else can go out without much notice?

PITA! to clean bird sh*t of your car! especially after you leave it for a while & the sun rays hits it. it really fu*ks up the paint.

Life hammer
$1 yellow rain parka (bought them at one of those dollar stores)
AAA card
cell phone
qt of oil
1/2" breaker bar for getting off wheel lugs
$10 torque wrench for getting wheel lugs back on (yeah, I know that a cheap one isn't very accurate and the heat in the trunk doesn't help either, but it's at least more consistent than my right arm)
.357 Revolver
V-1
Tarp (to protect the trunk if I have to carry anything messy and to protect me if I have to scoot under the car to check something when I'm on a muddy road)
Spare house key
and most important, Notebook with pen (maintenance log. "If you didn't write it down, it didn't happen.")

Cop pulls me for passing on a solid yellow and says he could charge me with 'Careless & Reckless'.
I said, "'Careless' sure because I made that move without checking if you were back there, but 'Reckless' would be if I saw you but made that move anyway."
Laughing, he let me go.
