Oh boy.  Since you asked, here is a list of the spare parts I carry:

Spare tire (duh)
spare oil filter
fan belts
enough tools to remove every piece from the car
10 quarts of oil
road flares
emergency light
extra wire and connectors
timing light
engine analyzer (tach/volts/amp/dwell, etc)
extra spark plugs
spark plug wires
Haynes workshop manual
Haynes Weber/SU/Zenith carb manual
SOL Roadside Assistance List
rags and hand cleaner
gloves
jumper cables
propane torch
brake cleaner
carb cleaner
WD-40
grease gun
frisbee (you don't know how long you'll have to wait for the tow truck)
extra fuel filters
driveshaft U-joints
thermostat
radiator cap
radiator hoses
roll of duct tape (of course)
2' of fuel hose
clutch slave cylinder repair kit
side cover gaskets
battery terminal cleaner
clutch release bearing
SU carbs/intake manifold

This is honestly what is in my trunk every time I leave the driveway.  No
wonder I have no trunk space.
