Bring a 12 pack cooler with your favorite soft drinks or water. It is going to be a hot trip. So long as the car is in tune, all you need is an adjustable wrench, pliers, and screwdrivers. NAPA has any parts you need, if you need them.
The worst part of the trip is across Ohio on I-70, the right lane is for trucks and the left is for trucks passing trucks. Stop at Wright-Patterson AFB and visit the air museum near Dayton, it is amazing. Drive straight through Indianapolis rather than the bypass, it is much faster except rush hour.
Check your oil and antifreeze at every fuel stop, bring a small roll of paper towels to keep the drinks from dripping on your lap.

Smile :) and have a good time!
