also dont forget radiator hoses and tape of all kinds, some elect wire and 6 volt test lite and jumper cables, radiator hose with spring inside is best, you will need another trailer to carry all this stuff.

Thanks for all the responses and great suggestions.  Can anyone help us out with our route on US 2 across the northern US?
Has anyone driven across the Rockies, this route?  Should we expect snow in September?  Is there anything along this route we shouldn't miss? Know of good camping sites? Hope to meet some of you at the National, in Shipshawana, IN the first week in August.  I'll have car and trailer there.
thanks, Dan

Our trip is less than a week away.  I have replaced the brakes, wheel cylinders, idler arm, king pins, points, condenser, plugs and all the fluids.  I downloaded and printed the Napa Interchange, bought the blue service manual and the parts manual.  I bought a transmission with an overdrive solenoid at the National Convention.  So hopefully we are ready to go!  I thank everyone for all the great suggestions.  As we head west from MI across US 2 to Seattle, and then head done thru Colorado, we love to see your K/F cars.  You can email us at danshanfleck@hotmail.com and you can follow our blog at teardropkaiser.wordpress.com

A cold beer awaits in Seattle, also.  Let us know when you will be here and we'll bring our '51 down and have a mini-meet!

That's great. Thanks for letting us know.  And a fine looking '48 I might add too!

Love to do that sometime, but being 6'10"  it would be hard to get in and out of trailer.  Lol
