New 914 owner, driving cross country..

[RetroSC]

Well, I'm pretty excited! Always wanted a 914 but I've been stuck in the 911 world for quite some time, not that that's a bad thing.

Anyway, is there anything I should be looking for as far as spare's go? I'm driving it from LA back to Kansas City in a couple of weeks and while the car has been a daily driver and is good to go mechanically I know old cars, and anything can happen.

Here's a pic. It's a 73 1.7, one owner since 74.

Anybody know what this color is?

Thanks, Bill

It looks kind of like Delphi Green Metallic.

There have been a few threads, even recently, on "what spares to bring with you". A search should help.
