1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

if you live in a house with aluminum siding & aluminum window blinds - do you live in a Faraday Cage?
Would you need to have aluminum backed fiberglass rolls between the roof rafters to complete it?

 

We use Organic Recycled Brasilian RainForest Carbon Encrusted Blowfish Bladders. They can be reused after huffing the Carib Breeze. Simply put them in the sun for few days until they stiffen. Can be used in salads or as as tasty breakfast treat with Soy Milk.

 

Maybe some attic strips would help as long as there is continuity with the siding that is then grounded. Same principle with lightening spikes/cables on homes.

 

Looking forward to follow along with your work on the timing belt.

I need to watch the YouTube videos to the point where I can do the work blindfolded, lol.

 

Last little piece for me is finding the proper puller for the crank gear. I’d like one like in the FSM such that it can be used for the pulley, then later for the gear.

 

Looks like I’ll own it this week

 

Well I’m not old and I think it’s ridiculous. I’m not a macho man but respect your wife/girlfriend/whatever. She shouldn’t be doing that HE should be. It’s a sad world that we live in with men growing up as girls and discipline gone to the way side...kids parented by their iPads and Xbox’s.

 

Now that I'm on a flat surface I see I'll have to make some more tweaks.

 

We just come from a different generation. Not saying the ones after us are all garbage, or all of us are great, but there is a difference. I'd say it probably started in our generation. Unless you're one of those millennials that PHM likes to bitch about. But I'm pretty sure we're about the same age.

 

If it's like every other CKS I've dealt with, the shielding isn't 100% neccessary. It's just that it's about the most important signal and needs protection JIC. My SHO has one, but it wasn't even connected for the first few months.

 

Pop was a Macho. He’d make mom go in the kitchen and make a sandwich or grab him a beer. My voting habits revolve around this memory.

I’ve always respected womens rights to act stupid and not hold their Men Accountable like getting a real job versus a hand model job. Now women have everything they always wanted including holding 3 jobs plus raising their children and loading their soyboy husbands items in the truck. You’ve Come A Long Way Baby!

Now the women realize what they have done to themselves. The Covid is making them homemakers again! OMG I’m triggered!

 

I was bringing the whole story full circle. ‘Nick’d Cable —-> Faraday Cage—-> Nick Cage.

Its all about the Circle of Chi.

 

Not in the marriage sweepstakes apparently....

 

Well I'm jealous @empty_lord , but I'm a member of MBCNA. Under hood looks a lot better than I'd expect for a car sitting on the ground. So very tempted to offer you a swap of running/stopping Benz for my Tacoma... I look forward to see how the pans & frame look. Too bad they didn't upgrade the radio to include SW, but at least the Becker is upgraded to include FM. Nice Project - what next, park it in a barn in cue, or head of the line to flip?

 

They traded in a '53 Chevrolet for a '66 MB 200. What an upgrade!
MB of Amerika - LOL!

 

it’s never outside. Sat in a barn till 2 weeks ago for remodels.

 

And I’ll be just getting it running and driving so I can cruise in it. Nothing crazy

 

@empty_lord

Whats the thread size on the crank pulley holes for the 2 screw holes to secure the removal tools?

 

Don't believe you for a moment. ;-)

 

I believe you need 6x1.0 Or 8x1.25. Usually the pulleys come right off without a puller. Very rare for me to need

 

He is Gen-X Pucks.

 

I'm working on my $750 sequoia rehab and trying to not dump much into this thing. I'm hoping maybe somebody has upgraded and has their old parts lying around.

These are considered to be in the top 3 speakers produced under $10,000 in the last 20-30 years.

I’ve been trying to get these back in my possession for a number of years, I should have never sold them.

We need to start putting up wagers for how many mouse nests you find in it.

I'm guessing 6 nests. 4 between the trunk and the cabin. 2 outside the trunk and cabin. Hopefully none chewed thru cables.

I think it'll benefit a ton from a wash and polish. Good part is, there's not much required to make it run. I'll be surprised if the firewall bulkhead has more than 12-14 wires passing from cabin to engine bay.

 

Condenser and points on this ol girl.the choke is still there. I just need to find the air cleaner hose

 

I know folks who understand how to adjust points tend to be fond, but there's something awesome about upgrading to HEI on old points-based systems.

 

Oh. I bought the 66 john Deere too...
