Emergency Kit Advice For Your Classic Car

Emergency kits are an essential tool for any vehicle including your classic car.  Whether you have a relaxed trip to the country or a longer trip to a classic car show, it is always best to be prepared ahead of time. Auto emergency kits often mean less time stranded and more time on the road. If you became stranded today, are you prepared? Be sure to equip your vehicle with everything you need to ensure a safe trip - and be sure every driver is familiar with the tools contained in your auto emergency kit and knows how to use them.

What should the kit include?

• Tools for minor car repairs including flat head and Phillips screwdrivers, vice grips, adjustable wrench, pliers, pocketknife, or a multipurpose tool containing many tools in one. Other items that can come in handy during a roadside emergency include oil, antifreeze, windshield washer fluid, rags or paper towels, duct tape, and an ice scraper.
• First aid kit containing basics gauze, bandages, adhesive tape, antibiotic ointment, scissors, instant ice pack, instant heat compress, and aspirin or other pain reliever.
• A blanket.
• A bottle of water.
• Food such as Granola or energy bars.
• A flashlight with extra batteries.
• Emergency flares.
• Pen and paper.
• A help sign to place in the window for passing vehicles to see in case you are stranded inside your classic car.
• A spare tire, vehicle jack, tire pressure gauge, and lug wrench. Another handy item to have available is a bottled tire inflator. If the tire is not completely flat, you may be able to inflate the tire enough to get to a service station.
• Your classic car insurance company details.

What make is this shotgun?

20 gauge, semi-auto, field classic, has flowers and birds on the side of it,wood stock, 2 3/4 or 3''
serial number 3128140

Sounds like a Remington 1100. They make a "classic field." A for the engraving it could have been a custom addition, or a limited edition. Browning has a "classic field" but it is an over and under. Not much info to go on, any numbers besides the serial visible? Or got a pic?
