You can usually pack all of the
small items in a plastic tackle or lunch box. The larger items can
be put in a strong cloth bag and tucked into the wheels wells. You
also have some space underneath the spare tire. But before you
head out make sure you do a maintenance and safety check.
Be
sure to include lug nut torque in your safety check.
They tend to loosen over time on alloy wheels.

I don't have great facilities or
equipment myself, my wife and her family own a local Nissan
dealership and have some great and knowledgeable mechanics working
for them.
We have a horse trailer that has
effectively moved my own roadster at times.

I've got a pretty complete shop at the house
and should be able to handle most anything. Also, this is the
Roadster Ranch SU carb place.
Got cold ones in the fridge and enjoy having roadster folks drop by when they are in town.

I'm only 4 miles off 71 about an hour
north of Columbus.
Garage, basic tools, some parts near by. Call in advance & stop in for a meal!
Over the years I've had quite a few roadster folks stop by for a meal or a night. So if your travel plans include crossing Ohio on the turnpike, give me a ring & stop in! Summer weekends I'm likely to be at Nelson Ledges Race track with Sloan Racing, but you are welcome to stop by the track also. |

I have a shop--no lift :-( a decent
set of tools and a fair amount of spare parts with access to more
close to home. I can also come up with sleeping accommodations once
the basement is done being refinished.
We live about 25 minutes south of
Madison and about an hour west of Milwaukee. Drop in always welcome
and the beer is always cold! Give me a call!! |
