Cross-Country Road Trip in a '68 Barracuda

Well, the car is finally packed up and on the boat to Seattle! I'll be (hopefully) picking it up this Friday at the port. I thought I was going to have maybe 300 or 400 pounds of cargo, but no... I managed to pack 600 lbs into it! I have a 4-speed ratchet strapped in the trunk above the rear axle, a clutch, brake parts, intake manifold, toolbox, misc. spares, two bellhousings, a spare tire and jack, jack stands, fluids, and much more in the trunk, and then a Yamaha electric keyboard in the back seat. I didn't have time to organize the trunk super well, but I'm going to have to repack it so we have room for our bags and such.

I don't have a photo of everything before it went in the car, but here it is packed:View attachment 1715745460

Nice job.

Yes, need better organization in trunk. Get tools, jack and gas near back of trunk for access. Put oil and gas in plastic bags to capture any spillage or leaking. Some huge pothole or evasive maneuver and things can get punctured.

Same burgundy exterior and white interior color as my car.
