A friend of mine did something along this line many years ago. He took a
catalog from Victoria British. Depending on your schedule almost anything
you need is a day away. Your AAA card will get you to the nearest town with a
hotel and Moss has a warehouse in your back yard. I'd pack the little
stuff and some basic tools and if anything major happens you can always order
the parts buy the additional tools you need.
Worst case scenario: rent a truck and trailer and tow it home.
Good luck and enjoy the trip. Sounds like fun.
