8h 600 Mile Roadtrip - Advice

Wonder??? We take vacation in our classics. However....
Keep in mind, 40 years ago:

• every auto parts store had everything on the shelf.
• every service station had a mechanic that understood points and carbs
• every part, wire and connection was only a few years old

That is why I bring the obvious things that could leave me sitting, and I know how to fix it myself.

That’s more why I’m asking. I’m not the most knowledgeable about this car and it still has its fair share of issues. I’ve fixed a lot of things and really drastically improved the reliability compared to the poorly maintained car I bought a year ago. I haven’t had anything fail on me recently, just curious if there’s anything I should look out for.

The parts aren’t particularly available everywhere, so it’s a little concern doing 1,200 miles. I think it’ll be fine, but y’all have much more experience than me here
