Drive 1000 mile bringing new old car back home

Always fun to bring home a new project and a 1000 mile road trip is a great way to do it. Car likely will make the miles, or at least can be nursed along, but bring tools and some cash for emergency repairs or towing. Might want to revise that 1 day timeline. At 75 mph, that's over 13 hours of driving and you might find it a little easier on the machinery and less stressful to break up the trip. Personally, I find 500 miles a day is plenty.
